And you agree that the commerce clause overrides the Second Amendment ?They used it with the saturday night specials! Nobody was able to stop that, so I suppose it is tested law by now.

Many long term members of NRA protested the NRA policy. I did and probably the most famous protester was Bush 41. He withdrew his membership as many other did. It was quite a fight.
I think you see only what you want to see regarding this issue. Please remove the blinders and try to understand the fears of the day when hijacking was a weekly/monthly occurrence.

Actually Bush 1 withdrew his membership because the NRA labeled the F troop, Jackbooted thugs after they shoot Vicki Weaver in the head and the Boy in the back, along with a couple of other stong armed raids that caused death or great harm to citizens. It had NOTHING to do with any plastic weapons. If you are going to have a debate atleast be honest with the facts you are using.
And it cost Bush the election. THAT DUBYA Better learn before 04!

"...probably the most famous protester was Bush 41. He withdrew his membership as many other did. ..." Not true -- (confirming post22 ).
Bush 41 publicly, on national tv, resigned his NRA membership because the NRA repeated the "Jack Booted Thugs" comment, that was first used by Dem Rep Dingle.
(Ruby Ridge was on Bush 41's watch).

I am being as honest as I can. My re-call may be faulty, but the plastic gun issue was mentioned repeatedly by the talking heads who reported on this.
They framed it as the Ruby Ridge issue was the straw that broke the back of the camel.
The jack boot comment was also pretty bad politics.
Again, I brought this up to illusrtate the changes in the NRA since and to point out that pig headed objectionist policy simply draws the ire and the fire of the other side.
But alas, all here fail to see the forrest because of the darn trees that are in the way.
LOL! it's been fun. It will be some time before I subject myself to this moronic exchange again.

The party split over Perot and guns were not the issue. Clinton staged a phoney duck hunt and the quacks voted for him as a gun supporter. It was all BS.

While I was correct, I was not specific enough.
The letter was dated May of 1995. Just read the text.

"...to point out that pig headed objectionist policy simply draws the ire and the fire of the other side...."The other side and the Sarah Brady propagandists keep trying to grab guns even if nothing is said.
The NRA and GOA simply respond to the "pig headed" gun grabbing.

I will agree that there are a few of those for sure. Fienswine's tirades are a good example.

F troop, Jackbooted thugs after they shoot Vicki Weaver in the head and the Boy in the back Actually they never called the BATF "Jack Booted Thugs", not just them anyway. It wasn't even F troop that shot Vicki Weaver or her son. Federal Marshalls shot her son, and FBI agent/sniper Lon Horiuchi shot her, while she was holdding an "assault baby".
Horiuchi was reportedly at Waco too, after the FBIies took over from BATFers who got their a$$s handed to 'em. Both Ruby Ridge and Waco were BATF's doing though, they just sort of drug those other federal agenecies into the hog wallow with them
