Cheers to all who've read and forwarded. The diary was written last year, roughly two months before the Heller opinion. The diary was reposted last month. Notably, its reasoning WRT an individual rights interpretation closely tracks the reasoning in the Heller majority opinion. But Heller...

I can't resist opportunities for self-deprecation Pink Pistols has an excellent plan for activism in the physical world titled "Breaking Barriers and Building Bridges" Take a look at the page; it provides in part: That's consistent with my personal experience. The local...

hso: Good point. I dig on the pure meritocracy of the internet -- where ordinary people can garner huge distribution purely on word of mouth. 30-Second Bunny Theater (for an extreme example) has passed the one BILLION hit mark. It is now commercially sponsored, but from inception until...

Absolutely. And so as to not hijack my activism thread into a hardware thread, I'll IM you a list of hardware that's certified good to go by Pat Rogers, the man who knows as much about the AR platform as anybody on the planet.

just want to make sure this is the correct forum . . . Almost forgot -- I wasn't sure just which forum was the most appropriate, so Moderator, if I've goofed, I won't be offended if you redirect me to a different forum. I'm encouraging people to read and forward RKBA content that happens...

this is why I LOVE THR -- open minds and good manners! At [________].com I'd usually get flamed for even daring to suggest that RKBA advocates can be found left of center. Lots of nice terms like "libertard" being thrown around. Lots of vitriol. Lots of tin-foil caps. HERE at THR folks...

There's a group of users on dailykos.com who are out to prove that you can be liberal/progressive AND a big 2A supporter. They're attempting to post a new diary every Tuesday. You can search for it right here (or just go to www.dailykos.com/search and put RKBA in the search field "stories and...

RS14 is also doing it right! We need to redefine our tent as "RKBA Supporters" rather than DEMs v. GOP, red vs. blue, liberal vs. conservative.

DrJoker is doing it right! You can wins hearts and minds . . . one heart and one mind at a time. There's a group of users on dailykos.com who are out to prove that you can be liberal/progressive AND a big 2A supporter. They're attempting to post a new diary every Tuesday. You can...

Chris actually quotes me in his sig-line! Chris, DUDE! About a year ago you liked something I put in a flame-war on DKos.com: You advised you might use my quote as part of your sig line but I didn't expect attribution. Muchas gracias; I am quite honored. Keep a look out for more...

And I fully concur with you when I further characterize the typical leftist response as "blah, blah, no good against tyranny, blah, blah, what about my right not to be shot, blah, blah, I'm a big ol' ponce who plain doesn't like firearms and will resort to the worst kind of personal attacks on...

what can you say about an Article III judge? It is widely held that Scalia is one of the finest legal scholars on the Court. The man is undeniably brilliant. His disregard of much of the rest of the Bill of Rights, however, inclines me to use words like "fascist" when describing him...

Thousands of pages of argument? I said: And then Cosmoline said: Cosmoline: Not sure if you're commenting to the entire thread or to my post. If the latter, please indicate the Boolean search that, using the rather primitive search engine (no offense) would return a discussion of...

Tiffany's! The little blue box comes from Tiffany's. The one in Bellevue doesn't even *have* a silver room. It's like the one in Beverly Hills -- all diamonds, all over-priced, all the time. ;-) Hence, "Little Blue Box" can be a Les Baer, or a Heinie, or a transferrable M249 if you were...

Little Blue Box = all the terrors of Hell itself I said: RainbowBob said: Oh, dude, you are soooo lucky if you don't know the Little Blue Box. Let's give our colleagues 24 hours to chime in, if not, I'll reveal the horror to you.
