I have obtained reprint permission for the Internet for Jeffrey Snyder's "A Nation of Cowards". It may be reproduced freely, including forwarding copies to politicians, provided that it is not distributed for profit and subscription information is included. I especially encourage you to copy and pass on this strong statement about firearms ownership to friends, colleagues, undecideds, and other firearms rights supporters. Your grassroots pamphleteering can counter the propaganda blitz now going on by introducing some reason to the debate. This essay is one of our best weapons. ******************************************************************** The version below is converted from the original Mac PageMaker file I got from The Public Interest. There were some minor punctuation errors, a few typos, and a factual error in the previously posted version. Please REPLACE earlier versions with this one. In my mind this new one should be considered official and final. ******************************************************************** To get this file by ftp: ftp portal.com, get /pub/chan/cowards.txt Jeff Chan ===== "A Nation of Cowards" was published in the Fall, '93 issue of The Public Interest, a quarterly journal of opinion published by National Affairs, Inc.
