We're from the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, and we're not here to confiscate your weapons.
To the above statement, many gun owners no doubt are muttering, "Yeah, right." And worse.
Their doubts and cynicism are understandable. After all, for decades the NRA and other gun interests have fed them the fiction that adopting any gun regulation, no matter how modest or worthwhile, will start a slide to the bottom of that imaginary slippery slope where manufacture, sale and possession of all firearms is banned. |

| check the history of gun control advocates. nearly all of them "behind the scenes" say the only way to get rid of guns completely is nibble away a little at a time. as far as this old man is concerned NO MORE compromise. |

Brady Campaign is a confirmed fail. Anti-gun groups lie. The NRA is easy to attack, mindless attacks as they are. The movement is about banning all firearms, they've admitted it.
Laws and checks do not work because only law-abiding people can be checked! |

TO REMEMBER |
| "Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
