Except for the fact that it doesn’t work.

The incremental approach has sure worked for the Left. They NEVER stop their incremental attacks on our liberties. They didn't get Obamacare in a day. It all started way back in the 60's with the employer insurance mandate.

And it's in the process of making a huge difference for 2nd Amendment liberties. Every year, states chip away at the restrictions the Left had put in place (also incrementally).

This war is more like the nuclear arms race, and less like D-Day.

Freedom-minded folks need to learn tactics in politics. Patience is the only way to win.

The “incremental” approach works for the Left because it’s a fine way to degrade and take down good things.

But you don’t forward good things by supporting bad things. The world just doesn’t work that way.

You forward good by standing without compromise for what is right and good.

Once you compromise principle, you’ve lost.

You are wasting your breath debating with EV. I have had this argument with him before. He would gladly allow millions of babies to be aborted rather that accept a partial victory on this issue. He is truly an "all or nothing" zealot of the first order.

On the other hand, I will not say that if I am not able to save all, I will not save any. Rather, I will will work to save every one that I can, with the goal of eventually being able to save them all.
