Please take your whining elsewhere I see, anyone who doesn't agree with you is a whiner. Compromise is good (Nevile Chamberline thought so too) frankly, you're beginning to bore me with your lack of intelligent response.

Show me where the votes are going to come from. Do you have a magic machine that will suddenly make anti-gun politicians suddenly vote for self defense? Again, for the third time, we don't have the votes in the Congress or the Senate to overturn or stop gun control. That's why we're forced to compromise. The NRA, JPFO, SAS, SAF and every reputable gun group understands this. That's why they use voter cards to identify anti-gun politicians but 95% of the gun owners don't vote or care.

Well said at #35. The compromising position taken by the NRA since '68 is directly responsible, imo, for most of the gun gabbing infringments since then.

If the republican party & the NRA would have stood their ground then, and forced a constitutional showdown, we would not be dying the death of a thousand 'regulative' cuts now.

And, -- as you also mentioned, compromising principle is NOT what FR is about.
