Quote:
So the quote is not accurate?

The quote is real. The idea that the Nazis were the architects of German gun control is not.
Quote:
And that has what to do with Bloomberg, Everytown, Moms Demand, and so on down the line?
|
The people I mentioned are the patron saints of the Bloomberg/MDA axis. They provide backing, legislative muscle, and strategic advice to this day.
Quote:
Are those folks you mentioned not allowed to change their mind? Find something inadequate after the fact?

There was no changing of minds or sudden finding of inadequacy. They wrote the bill and were aware of the exception.
The idea was that they got their bill
in a form they found acceptable, and we'd be left alone. That lasted less than 24 hours. The night the Brady Act was signed, Senator Metzenbaum went on the talk shows and crowed about how they
hand't gone far enough and they
needed to do more.
They started calling the exception a loophole, which wasn't true. The response was "Shaddup! I don't hear you! Lalala...loophole!"
So, you can understand if we're a bit hung up on semantics. Politics sometimes hangs on such things.
