A certain political party no longer sees openly pushing gun control as a bad thing and have no qualms about being very open about their plans. They believe that this is a long term winning strategy and I fear they could be right. Our only hope is to focus less on the macho gun owner crap and more on the idea of personal freedom. This means being more consistent in our positions on personal freedom as it relates to legal choices that individuals may make.
