[QUOTE="alank2, post: 1073460, member: 108"] Hi, I think they are too smart to try to just outright [b]take[/b]. They much prefer to erode rights a little bit at a time. Don't mistake that their outright goal is to take, but they know they can't accomplish that. But, if they can make firearm ownership more difficult, more restricted, more expensive, then they know it will reduce the people who choose to be firearm owners. Their goal is to repeat techniques of tightening the noose until someday, years from now, there are so few people left who have jumped through all the hoops that the few people left would be easily made to look like a crazy. At that point they would take. It is like any heavily debated issue. Both sides chip and chisel away at little bits to shift the line towards one side or the other, like a tug or war. Back to the president. He sure is looking cocky right now. I think what he got passed is a turd and many people know this. Now he has to do a PR job to try to convince everyone that it is great. I am looking forward to the elections to see if the dems in congress lose seats like they did back when they passed the AWB. I hope they lose a [b]ton[/b] of seats to this. If they don't lose a ton of seats, they are going to see that as momentum and you can bet they are going to push more of their agenda such as an AWB2. They have been playing it safe so far on the issue. This is why it is very important for pro-2a people to work hard on getting congress turned around... Thanks, Alan [/QUOTE]
