No, We Can't Work With Them...

Uncle did a piece on this a few days ago but several more instances have popped up since then that reiterate that No, the leadership of the Gun Ban Lobby (Brady Campaign, VPC, MAIG, etc) CANNOT be reasoned with or dealt w/ in any civilized manner.

Joan Peterson, BC and 'Citizens for Safer Minnesota' Board Member:

Hand grenades and RPGs are sold at gun shows all over the country. They could be sold by private sellers who may or may not require background checks.

Petey Hamm, BC Spokesman:

Joe Sestak earned his stripes – I think he has rather profoundly higher standing to talk about defending the country from radical international terrorists than some derivatives dealer for Chemical Bank.

I think it’s the gun rights folks who have mischaracterized this issue all along. There just doesn’t seem to be anyone you guys don’t want to be able to get a gun. Just admit it, already…

Paul Helmke, BC President:

"anyone — including gang members, people with severe mental illness, and domestic violence offenders — can buy a handgun from an unlicensed seller with no questions asked.

Distortions, mischaracterizations, demonizations and outright fabrications every one.

So when they say they just want 'reasonable, common-sense' gun control, to open 'dialogs', and reach 'compromises', remember to take a look at what they say out the other side of their mouths while endorsing politicians who call for bans on guns and the elimination of due process.

So again. There cannot be a resolution between the two sides. They have proven that again and again.
