Just as how voting rights were enforced for blacks and women, I can see 2A as our next civil rights movement.
The Second Amendment: Enforcing the Heller Decision
The Second Amendment: Enforcing the Heller Decision
Especially after Bernie conceded that our criminal justice system is racist and broken.Enemies of the 2nd Amendment tend to be enemies of the 13th and 14th. That's plain to see in Virginia.
Project Veritas needs to find a way to trick Northam into revealing his TRUE motives.
They try to make that argument because they obviously can't say they are just a bunch of black street thugs and gangbangers.If you watch YouTube, you will see that gun rights people aren't just "racist white people" like it's attempted to be portrayed.
Ask them why the party that aerguesd that voter ID is racist does not apply the same logic to requiring photo ID for firearm purchases or pistol permits.When people start to argue about gun control, I bring up voting rights and ask, "Should everyone be allowed to vote regardless of race, religion, sex, sexual orientation, physical disability?" Of course, their answer is yes.
Then I ask, "Should everyone be allowed to have freedom of speech regardless of race, religion, sex, sexual orientation, physical disability?"
When they say yes, I then ask, "So should everyone be allowed to self defense regardless of race, religion, sex, sexual orientation, physical disability? Especially victims of rape and violent crime?" When they try to spew the automatic argument points, I firmly repeat my question and ask them to think about it in reference to freedom of speech and voting rights.
And they go silent.
Charles C.W. Cooke said:In which case, perhaps we ought also to take a look at New York City’s gun-permitting process, which not only requires individuals who wish to buy a firearm to go through the apparently devastating process of obtaining an acceptable ID but also to provide separately a proof of residence, a proof of citizenship or permanent residency, and a Social Security card; to pay $431.50 plus the cost of two color photographs; to wait an average of eight months for the application to be processed, and then attend a lengthy in-person interview; and, if the applicant has not lived in the United States for seven years (and many immigrants can become citizens after just three years, remember), to provide a certificate of good conduct from their foreign government. Pray, how does that fit into the mix?
