Because it was stated:

It works as I said. My point is that gun rights folks sometimes are prone to screeds: Quote:
That's why Civics classes are useful in the real battle as compared to screeds.

In light of that, volume, emotion and "screeds" will tend to dominate. |

From the article linked in Post #19:
http://oag.ca.gov/news/press-release...unce-firearms? "....close the “bullet button” loophole." It's disingenuous, (a lie if you will) to call it a loophole. They do that to get the majority uninformed public to drink the Kool Aid. The so-called 'loophole' is a specific exemption written into the law that allows for a detachable magazine as long as it requires a tool of some sort to remove it. That's not a loophole. http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/loophole |

Intra-state private sales without an FFL was specifically left to the discretion of the states in GCA '68. Now it's the "Gun show loophole". As you correctly point out, the use of the word "loophole" is a propaganda tactic to drum up support. |

The major threat though is culture change, like in California. I think by the time that my generation is in power in 30 or 40 years the second amendment will be on the chopping block.

I'm sure that analogy is flawed in some way but I think I made my point. |

We don't have to wait 30 or 40 years to see the 2nd Amendment on the chopping block. The election this November is going to decide the issue.
This is the first time I have ever heard a presidential candidate declare that confiscation as in Australia is a public good, and a proposed national policy. Give these people 4 or 8 years to implement it, and they will do it. We think Heller saved our bacon, but the reality is the left has won substantial victories in Washington, Oregon, Colorado, and will win another in California soon. They believe they are on a roll, as it were, and will not stop. They also believe gun owners will divide among themselves, the AR/AK people and the duck hunters, and that law abiding citizens will just turn them in when asked. They have no reason to stop short of their goal. |
