“...If you’re going to lose, you have to minimize the damage and ask your supporters in the legislation to cut down the worse aspects of the bill. In this case”
I wonder where those “minimizations” were.
Where’s the sunset?
Where’s the appeal process?
Where are the provisions for non-LEO and non-Military?
Where are the other things that the mighty NRA could have negotiated, like NATIONAL RECIPROCITY in agreement to capitulation on this.
Nope. They caved.
I think it’s time to remind everyone here that the test in the language of the bill is “ADJUDICATED”.
Adjudicated means “judged”
Judged means there IS a judge.
Judges are POLITICAL APPOINTEES
Political appointees = political agenda
Before you know it, we Freepers will be “adjudicated” mentally unstable faster than you can say ‘Barack Obama’.
Remind me again where the NRA was on this?
Sorry, couldn’t disagree with you more.
As to the ‘other’ groups, the reason why they don’t do better is because NRA lemmings can’t get it through their thick heads that just like a stock portfolio for retirement, diversity of investment in your RIGHTS is a wise strategy to. They keep habitually donating to the NRA like a junkie, but it’s the rest of America that just gets the Smack.
Respectfully submitted, of course.
If you don’t like the NRA that’s tough. Get another gun group to stop this legislation if they’re so good. You have about 76 million gun owners to recruit.
Snappy “no compromise” mottos don’t count.
