Many Moving Parts
There are many moving parts to make the nation safer from gun violence. It will take reforms big and small, and the concerted effort by public officials to follow through on laws and regulations already aimed at keeping guns from the wrong hands. [More]Those would be your hands.
And as admitted, they'll take each scrap offered and then demand more.

This Will Actually End What, Exactly?
SIGN THIS PETITION TO TELL YOUR GOVERNOR TO ENFORCE OUR NATION'S IMMIGRATION LAW [More]It's not that I don't agree with the goal. Of course I do.
But my "Republican" governor's an enemy on this (and more), as are the governors of every blue state, so it's fair to ask what they hope to really accomplish with this -- aside from building an email list to send solicitations to.
It's tough enough getting people to do things. Having them chase sterile bee queens takes away from more effective pursuits.

Conflict of Interests
I personally support most of the gun control bills in the General Assembly this year, but I was conflicted about the assault weapon ban even before I went to the Rifle and Pistol Club. I'm even more conflicted now. [More]That's probably because your inclination is to embrace Opposite Day "progressivism" and you have given no indication you have Clue One as to what the Second Amendment was supposed to be about.

We're the Only Ones Cut Off Enough
A new Kansas law makes it a crime for police to have sex with people they pull over for traffic violations or detain in criminal investigations. [More]But how else are we supposed to hook up with women who wouldn't do us if they felt they had a choice?

[More]The claims seems credible, but I'm admnittedly biased and don't pretend to be qualified to validate them. I'd like to see a peer review.

Yet Another 'A'-Rated Traitor Brought to You by the 3D Chessmasters of Fairfax
"Some of us who passionately believe you’re elected to legislate, you’re elected to get things done, we want to bring all sides together," Paulsen said. [More]Passionately enough to betray the people who put them in office, evidently...
Any gun owner who votes for him regardless is a willing cuck, and the reason these power sluts continue to cheat on them.
When enough of these Quisling demoralize enough supporters to succeed in handing the House over in the midterms, look to the DSM to claim it's a rejection of the platform that resulted in Hillary's loss.
The thing that gets me most is the way gun owners aren't given the complete picture. From an earlier report:
Democratic Congressman Colin [sic] Peterson and Republican Congressman Erik Paulsen have each received $20,000 in NRA donations in recent years. Political analyst Larry Jacobs says for Peterson, who represents a conservative rural district, the donations will not be an issue. But for Paulsen, who represents a more moderate suburban district, the donations could hurt.The Democrat Party is willing to give up its gun vote interests in order to maintain a district because it knows once it gets enough of a majority it won't matter big picturewise. Directly related subversion is then conveniently ignored via the "single issue" ruse.
So Peterson is still free to back gun-grabber Commie-Lite Bernie, and to sell us out on the greatest threat to "legal" recognition of RKBA.
Ditto for Paulsen, who did his cowardly part to help Hillary.
I wonder if the orange cards could be used to bring up mail fraud charges.
