There’s a problem with your thought:

It is as if someone sees you with a cake, and says, “It’s not good you have a whole cake. Give me a piece.”

And he keeps coming back with the same line.

Eventually, he has the whole cake.

We don’t ever gain ground against the antis.

Why should we ever concede any ground?

Laz, it's not like we're not getting anything at all out of the deal. Inaccurate analogy. The guy sees you with a cake and says, "It's not good for you to eat a whole cake in one sitting. Here, give me half the cake and I'll give you a couple steaks off my grill."

No waiting period for guns or ammo. All 50 states.

Concealed carry license, valid in all 50 states.

Expedited (24-hour) issue of the license for anyone who's a petitioner with an active order of protection.

No gun registration, even in states that have it now, so they don't know where the guns are, so they can't confiscate them.

Furthermore, nobody is giving anybody any "cake." We'd still have the right to own any weapon that is currently legal, including the AR-15 and AK-47.

Look, if we could all get exactly what we wanted, and nothing we didn't want, my position would be the same as yours. But we're opposed by people who control the media, the education system, and the entertainment industry. They are well-organized, well-funded. (Take a look at "Influence Watch." Left-wing NPOs outnumber conservative NPOs by about 10-to-1, and they've been brainwashing people longer than you or I have been alive.)

We have to win the center to win elections.
