[QUOTE="jackdogstar, post: 789470, member: 66624"] I joined Gun Owners of America this morning. My understanding is that they are a little more proactive right now than the NRA. I did not think the NRA response to Newtown was effective. I think the NRA should have emphasized that the guns used in Newtown were stolen by the shooter from his mother, and the NRA should have emphasized laws to protect responsible gun owners from real criminals, such as stiffer penalties for anyone who steals someone else's gun. Just my two cents, for what it's worth. And GreyFox makes a good point. It's absurd to assume that people can simply leave a state if they don't like the politics. That's why we have a U.S. Constitution-- to set a minimum standard of protection of Rights that should survive any economic or social needs. That may be why Federal pre-emption of anti-Second Amendment laws might be the best course of action. Fighting these battles state by state is just not working. [/QUOTE]
