I know it’s almost 40 years now, but the Firearm Owner’s Protection Act of 1986, was likely the biggest unconstitutional restriction of our freedoms in the last century if not since the inception of our country. “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” | |||

Regarding 2A: the number of states with constitutional carry is now the MAJORITY of the states; and I now have a CCW, a Sig P320, a P365, and 3 AR-15’s all legally in California. When current CA 2A suits wind their way through the courts, we will probably have full cap mags, “ assault weapons”, and no DOJ roster. _________________________ “ What all the wise men promised has not happened, and what all the damned fools said would happen has come to pass.”— Lord Melbourne | |||

More like eroded. Government has proven to be corrosive. We are less free in varying degrees and in so many ways one cannot put his finger on most of them by design. I describe it as the room getting smaller slowly enough that most don’t notice until it’s too late. You’re a lying dog-faced pony soldier | |||

First amendment: I wanted to read a couple of Aleksandr Dugin’s books to be exposed to a different perspective. No can do as the government has, so it appears, forbidden his books in the US. Silent | |||

Darthfuster, I think a great portion of the "corrosion" Comes from A. The lack of participation by the general population., Because b. The gen pop have subscribed to the myth that the people being voted or hired in to positions of power are there to care for or look out for the gen pops best interest. The best way for people to achieve the government they desire is to keep one hand on the reins themselves. To not buy into their promises of the blissful future by allowing them free rein. Safety, Situational Awareness and proficiency. Neck Ties, Hats and ammo brass, Never ,ever touch'em w/o asking first | |||

It was FOPA that added the Hughes Amendment, which is what has killed the ability of many to own or possess a fully-automatic firearm. I shall respect you until you open your mouth, from that point on, you must earn it yourself. | |||
