Diamondback,@deckert Just for clarity, "Offended, Snowflake?" was not meant for you but for the "sit on hands" or collaborator crowd--few here have fought harder than you and Steve (sorry) at SS, and my hat's off to both of you and everyone else who fought the good fight.
Demographics be hanged...What's REQUIRED is for more people to get off their layze arses and vote against trash like Wyman...Inslee.. & their like!Being realistic here, have any of you taken a look at the demographics of your state? How are you going to vote anybody out when you belong to the minority vote?
You really think you are going to change enough minds on the other side? These are blind stupid people that are fine being lead to slaughter by wolves.
Real change will require tearing it all down and starting from scratch.
Have you looked at the details of WA elections? At MOST we get 40% of ballots returned. Seattle-King County IIRC usually have much higher turnout, though haven't been so brazen as to do "more votes than voters" like some other Bluedouche shizholes. Wheen Seattle marches in goosestep and the silent majority continue to sit with their thumbs up their Inslees, what do you THINK is gonna happen?
I suspect most new gun owners are buying based on fear reaction, not in a pro 2A rights standpoint. People buying on a fear based reaction I doubt give a flying hoot about anyone else's gun rights and won't be single issue voters.
I made a special trip to sign the 1639 recall, a big belated thanks to everyone who worked on it.
I find it frightening that literally NOBODY does think tank projects to teach gun Rights activists about the law, how it works and what you can do. The standard "letter to the editor" of your newspaper, write a congresscritter, and vote are about as useless as eunuch in a brothel. The vast majority of gun Rights activists cannot tell you the difference between an unalienable Right and an inalienable right; they don't know how many unconstitutional Executive Orders are on the books that the current president could revoke with the stroke of a pen; many seem oblivious to the fact that most regulatory gun control is not law, but policy.
The whole gun Rights lobby seem to not have any strategy. They don't know how to employ political guerrilla warfare nor do they understand what strategies got gun owners defeated in the first place. Just an example: The "Lautenberg Amendment" was an amendment to a bill that didn't have squat to do with gun control. So, why not pass a law requiring any amendment be related to the legislation it's attached to? OR, in the alternative, why not add pro - gun bills to all kinds of legislation so that you get what you want incrementally? I have submitted a prison reform proposal to my state representatives every year for a decade. NONE of them will introduce it, saying it won't pass. They don't say it's a bad idea, they say it won't pass. If that bill were attached to every gun control bill as an amendment, the Democrats wouldn't bring their gun control bill up for a vote. Nobody seems to think about that. No Democrat would want to have it on their record that they voted against legislation that would reduce most recidivism and limit the number of career criminals you have.
The way we do it is to come up with an idea; it fails; our people put their hands in their pockets and walk away dejected and defeated. By contrast, the liberals will reintroduce legislation over and over until they win. The liberals signed onto the United Nations Genocide Treaty (a precursor to those silly "hate crime" laws) in 1948. It took them from 1948 until 1986 to get that consent ratified in the U.S Senate. Gun Rights activists are one and done. You are not going to win that way. You are going to have to reeducate the people as to what the law is, what the Constitution means, the dangers of giving up the Fourth Amendment in order to exercise your Second Amendment Rights, etc., etc. We do not have a think tank and we do not have well informed gun owners. I am The Resister and I can get that ball rolling.
you mean screaming about the constitution some more isn't going to work?
