I just realized that gun ownership might be the only important political issue in America that has been decisively won by Conservatives in the last three decades.

Every other issue I can think of - budget increases, national debt, money printing, unfunded Social Security and Medicare, ObamaCare, immigration (legal and illegal), Black violence, Affirmative Action, gay everything, weakened military, the Global Warming scam, the Supreme Court - has moved relentlessly to the Left.

Our ‘gun rights’ victories have occurred in the several states, not with the feds.

Suffice it to say, with our win, their's don't really matter now do they?

When we decide to flip back their wins, we will be able to do so.

If we only were able to win one of that list, we won the most important one by far.

So very, very aptly noted. The only other issue we have “won” on in a small way is unions, and though I oppose unions, I can see where the globalisation, cheap labor, immigration trends all line up to favor the Uniparty on this “win” also.

Sadly, you are correct.

However, a lot of dissent on those other issues are simmering beneath surface, the national socialists can’t really tout their success on the economy and that is at least partially caused by the fiscal issues.
