My last message wasn't clear. <dontknow> I guess I should have had a beer before I posted. :ecs: What I meant to say was that I believe the Dems plan to pass a gun control bill. I just don't think it will be this one. If it could get though the House, they would certainly jump for joy. However, the past has shown that they propose a massive legislation and demagogue it until the Repubs think they have no choice but to compromise. Soon after, the Dems will say that is a good start but that more needs to be done. The last example was tax increases on "the rich" at the time of the fiscal cliff. I guess I'm expressing my lack of confidence that the Republican leadership will completely protect our rights. The recent past shows that they will only slow down the loss a little bit. Now I need more beer.
