President Donald Trump will deliver a strong sign of support for the National Rifle Association at its annual meeting on Friday, as gun-rights advocates regroup in the wake of the mass shooting at a Florida high school.
Trump’s address in Dallas will be his fourth in a row to the group’s annual convention. “You came through for me and I am going to come through for you,” he said at last year’s gathering in Atlanta. The NRA spent $30 million in support of Trump’s 2016 campaign, lending him credibility with some conservatives. |

“Take the guns first, go through due process second.”
Which is a blatant violation of the 5th Amendment.
Apparently, his legal counsel appraised him of that fact, and he backed off.
Good on him. |

TO REMEMBER |
| For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
