[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 296054, member: 2189"] Hey Brett, Look at legislation over the last 30 years relating to guns and it's obvious that more restrictions have taken place. In that timeframe also look at who was running Congress and who was in the WH. I'm no democrat party lover either but the Congressional record and the Federal Register point to a glaring fact that the democrats had lots of help and in many cases the democrats instead of being leaders were in fact followers! It's real easy to blame the democrats as they publically say what they believe but don't for a minute take your eyes off the other party as then tend to keep there lips still while their actions are another matter! Besides, did you ever once consider the fact that the NRA of which I was a life member until I resigned in the early 80's during the Neil Knox revolt wants some threat of gun control in order to maintain it's mission? (BTW I resigned because NRA refused to fight the regulation on what was called assault weapons and in fact their position was they should be regulated so before you demogog the democrats and this all during the Reagan years! Imagine that!:surprised:) The worse thing in the world for NRA for example would be a herd of libertarians gaining office and a Supreme court packed with them and the 2nd amendment becomes a non issue as gun pocession is completely seen as a right beyond the pale of gov't! What would the need be for NRA then? Interesting thought isn't it? BTW: The 2nd amendment was really a States right issue and never really about the individual because under the organic constitution, the federal document didn't concern itself with the indiviudual state citizen as the federal govt's jurisdiction over that citizen was almost nile. It even had to go through the State itself to tax as there was no direct taxation until the 16th amendment which came after the 14th which established a federal citizenship. NRA knows this and are to chicken :censored: to dare argue the point in public! Also they won't attact the feds for over reaching under the commerce clause either which is the other way they regulate guns on the production, distribution and sale side. But this is another thread obviously. [/QUOTE]
