“the progressive wing of the Democrat party”
That’s what any “think tank: is. Group think is a progressive invention whether it’s gun control or any other subject. Progressives do all the thinking and get unhinged when individuals attempt it.

Group think thrives on Free Republic
I agree - it makes the world safe for tyranny, but what it works for is not what it's advertised to do. I guess the anti-gunner's motto is "The more defenseless you are the safer you are." George Orwell would be proud.
