WASHINGTON — Gun control advocates think, if not pray, they can win by losing when the Supreme Court decides whether the constitutional right to possess guns serves as a check on state and local regulation of firearms

IMHO, once a activist group takes such a stance, at such a critical juncture, they have already admitted defeat. They know their on the wrong side of this issue, and their stand is abhorrent to the Bill of Rights. They are just so blinded by their "faith" in Gun Control, that they cannot drop this issue. They have seen over a decade of losses, in the vast majority of this nation. They have watched public opinion turn against them, they have watched their war chests dry up, they have watched their supporters in office, replaced by those who won't even answer their calls....

And while this was happening to them, the Pro Civil rights side, has dramatically expanded it's power and influence. Even with MSM helping the "gun control advocates" at every turn, the public is still turning away from them in ever increasing numbers.

We will never grind hate groups like the Brady Campaign into oblivion, and like the KKK, their will always be people willing to flock to their republican lead ranks. But our focus should turn on the MSM, and their "trumpeting" the "Brady" line. They should be called out, publicly on their lies and distortions. Like the whopper told on CNN yesterday about the .223 being an excellent round for hunting elephants...When in truth, it is so weak, it is illegal to use for Deer hunting.

We should have melted their phone lines people....Just like we do congress and the senate....

MSM is the main provers of this BS now, Brady for all practical purposes is truly insignificant anymore.

We finally got most of the Congress and the Senate to ignore them, now it is time to get the media to (at least until they get the facts straight) Let MSNBC, CNN, ABC, and the others KNOW, that if they bring a "Brady expert" on, and give them air time....HE BETTER NOT TELL ANY LIES...

Cause when they do, we will see that YOU, apologize for it.....
