Gun Control & RKBA

(12,751 posts)post an OP here in the Gungeon stating that you intend to vote for President Obama's re-election even if doing so leads to the appointment of new Supreme Court justices who will likely overturn the core holding in Heller and the Chicago case. State your reasoning, which, if you do intend to vote for our President's re-election, I presume would be along the lines of "broad progressive policies for this country in general are more important than my one-issue concerns when it comes to guns, RKBA, etc."
I mean, that is right, isn't it? That even if President Obama appointed justices who eventually overturned the core holding in those right-wing majority cases, it would still be worth it to have him re-elected for all the other good progressive policies his administration would bring to the table, right? Right?
So, you do that, friendly_iconoclast, and I vow that I will, in turn, post an OP stating that I have finally met and acknowledge an actual "pro gun progressive," and I will further concede that I was wrong in my assessment that no such thing exists.
How's that for a wager? Let's do this thing: I expect to see your OP shortly.
