These idiots never give up, do they?

Guns & the NRA are the problem, not human nature.

And since “going big” a) isn’t going to happen, b) wouldn’t work anyway... they might as well take the good advice and all go home. And if they happen to live in a CC state, they can drive home safe in the knowledge that they probably aren’t going to be the victim of a carjacking.

It’s pretty simple to me. I’ve never knowingly committed a crime. Therefore, if they want my gun, they’ll have to kill me. Somehow, I think they’d like that.

“Obeidallah” means “servant of Allah” in Arabic.

Is it me or does the first sentence in the article not make sense?

The elites that want to get rid of guns and the 2nd Amendment haven’t been going big at all since they started this long, long ago. It has been a very steady but low key and piecemeal effort over the last 100+ years to legalize them out of existence.

But over the last 20+ years that effort has been stymied by Americans buying more guns, becoming members of the NRA, and the NRA (plus other gun rights organizations) waging a campaign in the courts and legislatures to take them back.

Now the elites are desperate for a last push to take their efforts over the top and get rid of them once and for all.

He also says gun rights opponents need to hold up signs at political events with photographs of people "killed by gun violence."

And counter that by showing pictures of people who were attacked by the"knock out game".

***Obeidallah claims the “pro-gun lobby” worked for “20-plus years” to get the Supreme Court to recognize the “then-radical notion that the Second Amendment bestowed a personal right to own a gun,***

I hate to pee in his post toasties, but before the CIVIL WAR the SCOTUS declared that one of the rights free men had was “the right to go about armed wherever they went.”
It was in the Dredd Scott vs Stanford decision.

After the CIVIL WAR, the SCOTUS had to redefine the amendment to disarm blacks with Presser and Crukshank decisions.

Actually, Mr Oblahdeeoblahdaa, James Madison is the radical you
can thank specifically for explaining the gun ownership and the
private citizen. I refer you to Federalist #46.

Gun grabbers have always operated under the assumption that 2A
is about militia members having access to arms. I would submit that
the 2A is about armed private citizens having that ability to form
militias.

The NRA should counter sue for stupidity.
