Anything gun owners are willing to "compromise" on is considered merely a first step.

Hell, I had a grabber just a week or so ago on DU, tell me that "compromise" really means gun owners have to adjust our expectations for what we should "be allowed to own".

Witness California and Chicago as pragmatic examples of gun control creeping incrementalism.

They'll come back for more every time.

But it is hysterically funny to hear some of them in Meta "celebrating" the ongoing success of gun control, while Illinois goes CCW the same day. The backlash cometh!

A Mini 14? Those had a well-earned reputation for jamming. Even more than the M-16's. AnotherMcIntosh Dec 2012 #13
