In the four years since the outrage perpetrated against the students and faculty of Sandy Hook Elementary School, the debate between gun control advocates and the supporters of gun rights has changed hardly at all. What movement has occurred, in fact, has been a solidification of the positions held by each side. States whose laws protect gun rights have extended their exercise, while those that had strict controls have worked to tighten their regulations. The recent ballot measure in California on guns illustrates this. One interesting exception to this trend has been the State of Illinois, and that’s been due to court rulings that have pushed back against Chicago’s overwhelming influence on the state as a whole. |

| The partisan divide is lessening. Soon there will be national carry, campus carry, a federal enforcement of gun violence offenses, and numerous other pro 2A gains. |

TO REMEMBER |
| ...If a man lies under oath or procures the lie of another under oath, if he perjures himself or suborns perjury, he is guilty under the statute law. Under the higher law, under the great law of morality and righteousness, he is precisely as guilty if, instead of lying in a court, he lies in a newspaper or on the stump; and in all probability, the evil effects of his conduct are infinitely more widespread and more pernicious. — Teddy Roosevelt - May 12, 1900 |
