The Linux culture has nothing to do with guns.  Period.  Eric's personal
interests in weapons are his own, but they do not now nor will they ever 
represent what the Linux community is all about no matter how he or anyone
else might associate them with "geeks".

To say the Linux culture includes "Geeks with Guns" simply because Eric has
a personal interest in it is like saying the Linux culture includes basketball 
because I formed a traveling over-40 league.
