Tell them to go in there and compromise. [More]
Because nothing quite says "Go away, you're satisfied now" to a pack of hungry, blood-lusting hyenas like throwing them a scrap of flesh.
Plus, it's a lot easier than helping these guys bear the load, and fighting every advance each time one is attempted. The head of that group was on AAR last Sunday. I'll be talking more about the Nevada effort in detail soon.
I'm going to drop this for now with a statement of fact and an observation: In another life, and in a professional capacity, I have personally coordinated over half-a-dozen ballot initiatives in California to preserve fireworks sales. We won every one. It can be done.
What it needs, aside from money, is people with a vested interest getting involved and doing the needed things. This is where we get into "Profiles in Apathy." If the extent of a gun owner's individual involvement is an occasional blog or forum comment, then compromise won't even be an issue. The antis will ram things through and keep on rolling.

He explained this to me (us), who have had enough of "compromising away our rights" away:
"Living in a fantasy land where you just yell NO louder is not a strategy, or a tactic even.
There’s a lengthy continuum between a world with no gun control, and civil war."
So according to Sebastian, it's either continue to compromise, or civil war is likely.
He's become the perfect NRA (Not Relevant Anymore) spokesman.
Whose side is this guy on? One wonders how much Bloomberg is paying the guy...
That excuse is also a diversion, because it ignores creative alternatives he and his like either don't know about or have been silent on if they do.
