Why not start here...

10. The baggage

of past attempts at control do hinder current efforts. Even here where some say no one wants to take guns, we can find many calls to melt them down... As proRKBA are called on to counter extremist 'gunz everywhere' types so must those favoring controls must counter their own extremists. I believe Obama has done well as a voice favoring greater control while respecting rights, too many will oppose him either because A) he's a Democrat, B) he's black or C) he's a black Democrat. We as liberal gun owners need to find our voice; the NRA is the self proclaimed leader but hardly speaks for us on the left side of the spectrum.

I agree also that RKBA has little reason to support increased restrictions. Despite claims to the contrary, GC is not sweeping the nation. The reason to support reasonable control is that every pendulum will swing back and if there is not already compromise, severe restrictions could end up in place some day.
