VIDEO. Filmed 5/2007. The Brady's have had tacit support from Emmanuel for their backdoor run on the Amendment II for years. And although he didn't say Obama's name specifically, he seems to be speaking in certain terms about what federal policies will come into their own under the right democratic president. He also prominently uses the slogan that would eventually become the cornerstone of Obama's campaign.
If this ever becomes policy, one only has to be accused of being a sympathizer to be stripped of your right to bear arms. The prospect is dizzying. And what other rights will people be cursorily stripped of in the future should that door be cracked by this policy? My confidence in the American people to resist gun control measures has been buoyed by the data that shows the number of guns that have been purchased since Nov 08. Yet I am not at all relaxed enough to think that we're out of the woods. All that it will take is one catalyzing event to cause the full court press on gun rights. All the key pieces are in place and the chess board is setup for a checkmate. The only thing that stands in the way are the people. Hopefully we'll be united in our efforts to combat the this unprecedented threat by the current administration to resist the trampling of our rights.
I'm curious. Has any president since Roosevelt ever openly championed the position of the NRA? What do you all think the reaction would be if such a thing as this video were ever made public showing a GOP CinC chief of staff advocating for the NRA? I think corporate media would turn it into an apocalyptic event, for sure.
