Divide and conquer. Bit by bit, one person at a time, one "gun" at a time, we're going to lose our Second Amendment rights.

"I say that the Second Amendment doesn't allow for exceptions or else it would have read that the right "to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed, unless Congress chooses otherwise." And because there are no exceptions, I disagree with my fellow panelists who say the existing gun laws should be enforced. Those laws are unconstitutional [and] wrong because they put you at a disadvantage to armed criminals, to whom the laws are no inconvenience."...Harry Browne

There's quite a lot of us who feel the same way. Somehow though, about all we ever do is preach to the choir. Even the big dog in the neighborhood, the NRA, uses the same rhetoric in their official comments.
Like a lot of other old folks who have failed to attain all they wanted in life, I sometimes dream of what I would do if I were King. First and foremost is always: Repeal NFA-34 and GCA-68 with all their additions and ugly baggage. Then I'd DIRECT the SCOTUS to incorporate the entire BoR under the 14th Amendment.
But those are just the dreams of an old man.
