The gun control movement is dead. It's still twitching here and there, but we're getting gun bans repealed all over the country, often replaced with CCW laws. And every single person that becomes a gun owner will become a pro-2nd-Amendment voter. And then, once everyone discovers crime dropping like a rock, it'll be total GAME OVER for the Million Moron March crowd.
We're as likely to go back to gun control as we are to go back to the gold standard.

The gun grabber movement will NEVER die as long as gazillionaires McKelvey, Soros, the Joyce, Packard, Goldman, Tsunami, and Tides Foundations can keep funneling gazillions of dollars.
If can be kicked to the curb though with grass roots movements though.
Speaking of CCW in Michigan. I don't believe in polls. Never did. But they USUALLY are somewhat accurate within 10%. It used to be 38% backing CCW in Michigan if you believe the polls. Now the polls say 58%.

The laws in New York City are painfully close to the UN's no-private-ownership-period ideal -- and show no signs of changing anytime soon. Best not to get complacent. Apart from Vermont (and even there, the federal background checks are still required), no U.S. state is where it ought to be on this issue.

I agree with you, but the liberals aren't giving up, they may have backed off on guns, but they are making other assaults on the Constitution. They aren't giving up by a long shot, very tenacious. The next 6 years will show where we are headed, although Bush at times is trying to push the government left.

Don't bet on it. It will take only another Columbine or two, and the anti-gun Commies will be back in the spotlight. Don't
ever let your guard down!
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

"...it'll be total GAME OVER for the Million Moron March crowd."I don't think so. These idiots created a paying job for themselves and have a vested interest in seeing the anti-gun agenda continued. What they may do is switch their anti effort into the NFA/GCA repeal arena.
I mean, who needs a machine gun? Or a "sniper rifle". Right?
