“The worm that destroys is the constant temptation to seek approval from your critics.”

NM Governor-turned-presidential-candidate, Bill Richardson, who spent considerable state funds building an NRA/Police Range in Albuquerque, all to win NRA’s endorsement, has, thus far, been the only ostensibly pro-Second-Amendment candidate on the Democratic side. In fact, when campaigning for NM governor, Bill was a constant champion of gun shows and gun-show sales of firearms.

Not any more! Now, groveling at the feet of the DNC, Bill has suddenly done an about-face and announced that “we have to close the gun-show loophole,” meaning that gun shows, indeed all gatherings of gun owners, formal and informal, need to prohibited by law.

As probably could have been predicted, Bill has knuckled under to demands of the DNC and, of course, as president would do the same. A bright light has fizzled, sputtered, and gone out!

Another example of why Democrats, especially at the national level, will not get my vote. The current, far left leaders will not allow serious pro 2nd ammendment people to succeed in their party.

It would be interesting to see the actual link to the statement not the paraphrased maybe statement. I don't always trust what things on the internet are true.

If RKBA is one of your top priorities, You can't vote for a democrat. It's that simple. If the "2nd Amendment" is only one of several issues that are important then you still shouldn't vote for a democrat. If you believe that the top qualification for the Presidency is that it's time for a women or a black man to "have a turn" then this is your time.

It's not exactly intuitive. I had to add the tag myself though and I haven't found anyone else who has come up with a better way. The key thing is that the url has to go after the equal sign, not between the tags. I did it in your post so you can edit it and see exactly how it's done. Also, while doing that, I discovered that you have to put the www. before the youtube. The only way to fix that is to make a tag for www and a tag for without www which makes it a million times more confusing.

Code: Select all

Didn't Biden co-author the original "assault weapons" ban?

I'm not real sure you'll have a Republican to vote for either

A handy chart!

I agree but it is not just the 2nd amendment, it is whole constitution that need we need to be concerned about. The 2nd A is our only balance to have our leaders follow the constitution.
