What really upsets me is that on P&I it would open the doors to challenge many federal and state laws that infringe on us daily, yet with the DP argument it’s only going to affect one single issue.

Don’t get me wrong, I want to see the 2A be incorporated more than most seeing that I live in Massachusetts, and this would open the door to many changes in our current laws, but the P&I argument would of blown the doors off the hinges.

The NRA won’t be seeing any money from me this year, they’re only in this to justify their existence, honestly, they’ve left us here in Mass hung out to dry, if it wasn’t for GOAL (Gun Owners Action League) we wouldn’t have any voice as gun owners in this state.

Exactly. That's why I like that Gura is pushing P&I. I think it's obvious (to the majority of the SCOTUS, at least) that the 2nd has to be incorporated. They just can't say that the rest of the BoR is somehow different...

Exactly. And I'm in CA with the same hopes and dreams. :)

We've got CalGuns out here doing a bang-up job.

The NRA continues to get my donations because they do a good job on the political front and I like the idea of feeding the 800 pound gorilla to keep him big and ornery.

That doesn't mean I have to like everything they do.
