They had or face irrelevancy. Be happy. We won.
Well, gun owners have made some progress at the State level with CCW, but the 2 yard line? More like our own 40. It is a long way to go to repeal te NFA of '34...
While gun rights do not look as threatened as they were in the past one must not let ones guard down as the politicians are renown for trying to sneak bills in which would restrict the second Amendment of the Constitution.
Unlike the Republican ideologue in Louisiana who just lost his Congressional in a Bright Red district who traveled around with plastic fetuses.
KG9 continues the football analogy:
I hope that the Supreme Court's decision in 'DC v. Heller' is where the Brady Campaign's quarterback gets sacked in their own end zone by former Oakland Raider Bill Romanowski.
Obama hadn't “listened to the briefs and looked at all the evidence.”
When does a Washington policymaker ever look at ALL the facts on AMY issue to make a decision? Recall the volumes of tax code tossed into the trash can to make that statement?
Voters aren't stupid, just misguided. In case you haven't seen the following links, they're evidence that ignorance of the Constitution is epidemic.

I think not. It is not a counterweight at all. The NRA has approximately 5 million members that represents 5 million votes. Add to that millions of gun owners that do not belong to the NRA and you have a sizable voting block that supports the 2nd amendment. The Brady fanatics are about anti-gun, gun abolishment, and disarming of the law abiding citizens.
Once again a liberals heart over powers his mind and allows fear to override rational thought. The "Evil Black Rifle" is singled out even though there is no mention in the constitution about any class of weapons. Even the argument that they cannot be used as hunting rifles is a invalid statement. EBR's can be chambered in 6.8, 308, and even 300 Win all of which are valid hunting calibers.
They are light, modular, weather resistant, ergonomic weapons that are good for self defense, hunting, pest control and just plain target shooting. The fact they are efficient at putting holes in people is not the issue and we all know it and I suspect even the politico's know it.
Some of them unfortunately are.
