The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms was founded in 1972 and functions as a kind of sister organization to the Second Amendment Foundation, a legal think tank and law firm based in Bellevue, Wash., that, along with the NRA, has been a leader in filing major court challenges to halt restrictions on gun rights.
The chair of the Citizens Committee, Alan Gottlieb, told supporters in an e-mail Sunday that the group would embrace the Manchin-Toomey compromise. He urged members to read the senators’ compromise proposal to understand why the gun-rights group would back it.
I’m betting Alan managed to get a 50-State permit out of the deal...
It’s the only thing i can think of that would make sense shy of a bad alien brain swapping scheme.
We don’t need it though. The Second was incorporated along with the rest of the BoR when it was ratified. It needs no other ruling or law.
We just need the FedGov, and the States, to stop ignoring it...
If what he is saying is true, then wow. Just wow! Going to be a lot of pissed off Gun grabbers when they find out how badly they’ve been screwed!
It’s a Trojan horse, alright. But for the 2nd Amendment.
