Valdez...
Consider this: Say you are ambivalent about RKBA, you don't have feelings either way. You are also a citizen of a city that is sueing. The suit is paid for with your tax dollars....money that will not go for the city services that it was intended. Also recall, that these suits have been largely unsuccessful and admittedly intended to harrass and bankrupt the gun manufacturers. So, your tax money is being wasted, you weren't consulted about pissing $$ away on this political agenda, the services still need to be paid for.....do they raise taxes?
Now, all of a sudden, your city is sued because of its harrassment suit. Ooops...the city now has to spend more tax monies to defend itself and they could lose...lower quality city services and maybe higher taxes. You don't like this so you organize some group to protest, write letters, become an activist....radio, TV and newspapers report a growing coalition of angry citizens....PO'd about fiscal mismanagement, restraint of trade, political abuse and corruption. Why is your mayor doing this? Does he/she have the authority to spend public monies like this? What is the motivation? Perhaps to have the public fund a political ploy that he/she can capitalize on a later bid for higher office?
This is about political abuse, corruption and money....you don't even need to have an opinion about guns. Because of this and the tobacco precident, no business is safe from extortion.
