Roy and his daughter at the Illinois Gun Owners Lobby Day in March 2015.

Roy K. is the man behind Days of our Trailers, a pro-gun blog read by a who’s who in the gun rights community.  He’s been a great friend to Guns Save Life and to your editor emeritus for many years.  He’s also a member of Guns Save Life, as one might imagine.

He’s tired, and taking a break from blogging.

Why?

I’m tired of reading post after post of nasty, hate filled rants by anti-gun fanatics.  I’m tired of watching testimony by anti-gun politicians who either outright lie or are so stupid as to make me shake my head as to the completely ignorant constituents who voted for them. I’m tired of watching the war zone that is Chiraq and being blamed for it because some mentally deficient gang banger wants to shoot up his ‘hood to gain some cred.  I’m tired of reading half-educated ‘journalists’ repeat the same memes and talking points over and over in the papers.

I’m tired and I’m burned out. I still read the updates from my friends but I just can’t get the motivation to follow suit anymore.

He spends a lot of time (too much in my opinion, but that’s just my opinion) reading trash on social media posted from ideological zealots who want to not only deprive you and me of our Constitutional rights to keep and bear arms, but throw us in prison as well.  He deserves a higher place in heaven for his good work over the past eight years.  Even if his time spent watching the mental thieves did nothing but degrade his own sanity and tested his patience for the occasional glittering jewel of colossal ignorance.
