More dishonest blather from King... no surprise there!
King dishonestly states that he sees no wins on the gun control front in the U.S. He must be forgetting the humiliating defeat Obama and the anti-gun Democrats suffered in 2013. He must be forgetting the Firearms Owners Protection Act which overruled no fewer than six anti-gun Supreme Court decisions and about one-third of the hundreds of lower court rulings interpreting the 1968 Gun Control Act. He must be forgetting that there were only 8 Shall Issue Concealed Carry States in 1986 and there are 39 now, with some form of CC now legal in all 50 states.
Of course, I'm sure he'd like us to forget the passage of laws to protect firearms sellers and manufacturers from frivolous and financially damaging lawsuit... which Hillary Clinton wishes to reinstate. And King still hasn't accepted the crushing defeat of the anti-gunners in the 2008 Heller and McDonald Supreme Court decisions. King still insists that the Individual Right to Keep and Bear Arms is a recent perversion of what he thinks the 2nd Amendment actually says. Here he is dishonestly claiming that Conservative Constitutional scholar Mark Levin does not believe in the IRKBA:
Levin and Stevens, on this evidence, appear to believe that the Second amendment should only apply only to those who keep and bear arms while serving in the militia, and not as an individual right. Stevens goes further in his book, saying democratic processes should decide on the matter, not the judges, as a remedy for "what every American can recognize as an ongoing national tragedy."
All from a Reagan conservative and a Nixon-appointed jurist.
Notice that King never fails to neglect to mention that Justice John Paul Stevens was one of Nixon's great disappointments when he turned into a flaming Liberal. Another one of those little omissions of facts that King is so good at.
The Canadian Fraternity spent years and large amounts of time and money in rolling back the Canadian Long Gun Registry. King wouldn't know anything about that because he has done absolutely nothing to promote gun rights in Canada. He is too busy here attempting to LULL U.S. Gun Owners into complacency and advancing his Liberal Left anti-gun agenda. No matter what King may say or think, you cannot honestly consider yourself pro-gun when you support and defend the extreme anti-gun politicians who work tirelessly to infringe upon our rights.
