Gun Control & RKBA
In reply to the discussion: The impasse (part 1) [View all]DonP
(6,185 posts)We're supposed to keep giving up bits and pieces of our rights, so they can feel better, out of respect for their sheer moral superiority.
We had a recent thread where it became apparent after just a few posts that "compromise" is not what they want. "Just shut up and roll over", seemed to be the overwhelming point of view.
When quizzed about why we should give them anything more in the way of gun control, the responses, to paraphrase, were; "Why should we have to give up anything for more gun control?" and "Well, just because we're smarter and morally superior than all of you gun humpers".
For a few we even had to define what a compromise was and they still thought we should just give in.
That thread was the best argument I've seen for just ignoring the control side and rolling right over them politically when necessary.
They have no intention of discussing "compromise" in good faith or leaving well enough alone if they do get some traction, "Its a good start" comes to mind.
