Twice every year about thirty thousand men, women and children assemble at the Knob Creek Gun Range in the American state of Kentucky. They come to look at the most extensive collection of weapons that can be found outside a war zone. Among the visitors are many war veterans, militia members and adherents of Nazi ideology. Certainly the year after Septembser 11, 2001, emotions were running high at the Knob Creek Gun Range. There were loads of targets with the head of Osama Bin Laden and T-shirts with nationalistic slogans and American flags.
