I am nowhere as pessimistic as you are. All of this is based on the MSM being able to convince politicians that there is no price to pay for their perfidy.

That's precisely my point: thanks to vote buying, and the cowardice of the population, there IS NO PRICE TO PAY FOR THE PERFIDY OF POLITICIANS!

At the same time, gun ownership is growing, NRA membership is at an all time high, and the new media is getting out the message moreso than it ever did in 1994.

Yes, that is true. That's why Bloomberg has had to switch gears to the state-by-state strategy, divide and conquer. And, it's working for him: he's opened a 2nd front in the war on guns, started bloodying noses, while our forces are still fighting by Marquess of Queensbury rules.

Yes, the NRA and other groups will put up resistance. But not the kind that truly matters: bloodshed.

Obama’s ratings have slipped more because of his support for gun control than for nearly anything else. This does matter, even if he doesn’t have to care about reelection, because all the other Democrats do.

No, they don't. There are very few Democrats that has lost recently in blue states. They can buy or gin up enough votes to win whatever they want. Even that little ass-pimple Grayson will be back in Congress soon.

Bloombergs money will make little difference overall. It is only a fraction of what the MSM has been giving for free. Tell it to the good people of Colorado. Because Bloomberg got his money's worth there, didn't he?

It is based on the false idea that the NRA is strong because of money, when it is strong because of grassroots support.

Maybe, but show me a single NRA member that has resisted a gun confiscation in a blue state (CA, NY, NJ) with force. There are no mythical Henry Bowmans. There are only Nathan Haddads, that surrender to the police.

Then there is the possibility of decent rulings from the Supreme Court.

We've had some. And Heller and McDonald are being ignored, sea to shining sea.

All is not lost. Keep fighting.

I am fighting. I just want people on our side to stop assuming we're winning--we're NOT--and really hunker down and fight, street-style.

one way around CT anti-civil rights law (lets be real CT is the new segregationists) is to federally preempt CT via capacity deregulation and FORCED cross border recognition of CCW.
