Jedidah: The gloating here on FR is disgusting. I thought we celebrate the Bill of Rights

You've got a great point, but I'll bet you're taking a drubbing here Jed!

True, all the MSM is lefties, true all they're interested in doing is electing Democrats.

However, but all us NRA'ers are righties, and all we're interested in is electing, well, conservatives (not RINOs.)

When it gets to the point that we want the Press to go out of business because they want us to lose our guns, then the "Bill of Rights" has really lost its meaning. The point of the Constitution was as a pact that we'd defend each other's rights to say/do something we disagreed with (we'd defend their right to be anti-gun, and they'd defend our right to be anti-communist.) Turned out to be a suicide pact after all.

Don’t worry — I can take it. In fact, I thoroughly enjoy making others think.

This is not a time to be soft, either in body or mind, and some of the knee-jerk blabber by both right and left needs to be challenged.

If we truly do believe in the Constitution, in the rights it protects and the principles it advances, then we must defend all of it, not just what suits us at the moment.
