Gun control was an uphill climb in Congress well before Donald Trump won the 2016 presidential election.
But now that Trump is less than a month away from taking the oath of office, that climb arguably has turned into vertical scaling of a sheer rock face with rope and harness.
Trump benefited from the National Rifle Association’s endorsement and airing of televised ads that characterized Democrat Hillary Clinton as a threat to Second Amendment rights.
Ed.: Inauguration is actually January 20th, almost two months away. |

"But now that Trump is less than a month away from taking the oath of office .... "
Has inaugaration day been moved from Jan. 20th until Dec. 20th? Or has someone forgot how to count?
Are the other facts in the story equally questionable?
Our vaunted press in action ........... *sigh*. |

TO REMEMBER |
| The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.' The right of the whole people, old and young, men, women and boys, and not militia only, to keep and bear arms of every description, and not such merely as are used by the militia, shall not be infringed, curtailed, or broken in upon, in the smallest degree; and all this for the important end to be attained: the rearing up and qualifying a well-regulated militia, so vitally necessary to the security of a free State. Our opinion is that any law, State or Federal, is repugnant to the Constitution, and void, which contravenes this right. [Nunn vs. State, 1 Ga. (1 Kel.) 243, at 251 (1846)] |
