"Dems wacked away at the 2nd amendment now they want to kill the 1st.."

One of the dems favorite argument against the RKBA is that the 2d Ammendment only protects a 'collective right' to KBA exercised through the national guard.

If one buys this argument then one should also agree that the 1st Ammendment free speech could also be 'collective right' exercised through National Public Radio.

The purpose of the Second is to protect the First. Think of it as democracy's dead-man switch.

The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is it’s natural manure.

Hopefully, SCOTUS will do their job this time (as they did not, in the case of McCain/Feingold), and keep democracy alive.

The ADL and the Brady Campaign have teamed up in the past. Expect them to do so in the future

And, the ADL says very little towards those groups who attack Israel and call them "nazis"
