"No man's life, liberty, or property are safe while the congress is in session." --Mark Twain (1866)
"What's needed is less illegal gun control legislation, not more. Repeal it all!" --TERMINATTOR (2003)
Alaska recently went to "Vermont style carry." That is the direction other states will be moving to. Reverse incrementalism. But it is working.
I know where you are coming from.
Consider this, if you will:
In a climate such as CA, where the majority that votes has been brainwashed that guns are EEEVIL, what if a CCW shall issue was passed, and then the sheeple were to note that in fact guns were really not that bad, and some even started carrying, and of course some might even start to see the light, and vote to have a choice in the means with which to protect themselves and thiers, would that be a likable goal for you?
In 32+ states, that is exactly what is happening. The sheeple are starting to see that the sky is in fact not going to fall, and crime is (gasp) going down, and the neighborhoods are becoming more safe.
It took the pigs years to spread the shiite that we are currently under. It will not be erased by demand, or by getting in the face of voters.
