Do you actually think that is going to do any good?
"BOHICA!" screamed the e-mail alert. "Bend over, here it comes again!"
It was a familiar story. Politicians were about to pull yet another colossal act of betrayal, about to break yet another compromise with gun owners, about to put thousands more citizens at risk of prison for obscure technical violations of law.
BOHICA has become a way of life for people who care about the Bill of Rights, especially the Second Amendment.
So what did the group sending the urgent e-mail alert beg everybody to do? "Call your representative!" -- again -- "Write the governor!" -- again -- "Tell your friends to call their representatives!" --again.
Let's be realistic: Do we honestly believe an arrogant group of known liars and oathbreakers is suddenly going to morph into Patrick Henry just because they receive yet another batch of desperate, angry pleas from people who've been on the losing side of every gun-law battle since the National Firearms Act was passed in 1934?
"BOHICA," indeed! If you keep bending over like that, they'll keep doing "it" again.
Do you think not calling will do better?
