We are losing ground on every other issue, though - and it is only because the politicians FEAR us gun owners that they are restoring our rights, not because they believe in firearms ownership.

The right to shoot back at the government when it steps over the line is the most important of all, but if we could organize on behalf of other rights, in a monolithic bloc, the way we have on behalf of RKBA, we might be able to reverse the depradations of our other rights by the statist scum, also.

Compared to women who have the right to vote today that they didn't have in 1910?

Compared to Blacks today who have the right to vote but were prevented from so doing by Jim Crow laws into the early 1960's?

Compared to being able to trade stocks over the Internet today versus going to jail for so doing if you made those Internet trades in the 1980's?

Compared to the 55 mile per hour federal speed limit that lasted into the 1980's?

Losing ground?!
