Anti-gunners ratchet up the politics of fear

In this case, the ignorance that helps the gun banners comes in the form of the public not knowing how insanely bloated the "terrorist watch list" is, how few criminals buy their guns at gun shows, etc. More fundamentally, the disarmers count on the people being ignorant enough of civics and history to think that they need the government to protect them from their neighbors, rather than the other way around.

Tragically, gun haters may be right to count on such ignorance. Here's the thing, though--I didn't authorize anyone to negotiate my rights on my behalf. No matter how many members of whatever gun rights organization are tricked into supporting the anti-gun agenda, there will always be some of us who will never agree to "reasonable" infringements on that which shall not be infringed.

You still have to deal with us. [More]

Speaking of politics of fear:

McCarthy has filed her HR4298 - "The Gun Trafficking Prevention Act of 2009"

All her so-called "findings" (sec 2) indicate that all of us should be afraid, verrrry afraid.

You gotta always be afraid of a woman who revels in her husband's death.
