Maine is a state with an out-sized hunting establishment, an establishment that drives a good portion of the state economy. This whole mantra that someone is coming for your guns DID NOT originate from nor was it promulgated by these folks.
It was a pure fabrication of the US armament industry and was sold to hunters under the falsest of premises - that was someone is going to steal their livelihood. That they unfortunately bought the argument shows the power of propaganda disguised as advertising.
