NRA-ILA Executive Director Chris W. Cox took to NRATV Monday to announce that President Donald Trump will be speaking at the National Rifle Association Annual Meetings & Exhibits next week in Atlanta, Ga.
During his appearance, Cox spoke on President Trump’s historic first 100 days: "We now have a Supreme Court back on the side of individual freedom, back on the side of the Second Amendment," he said. "We have someone in the White House who supports the Second Amendment. That’s a big shocker after 8 years of Barack Obama." |

The reality is that if we are to have real commonsense federal laws (which, I know, is an oxymoron - according to the 2A, there can BE no federal restrictions whatsoever), McConnell will have to exercise the "nuke option" on normal legislation, and I'm not at all sure he would do that.
As it stands now, the Dems can stop Full Faith and Credit carry in the Senate with a filibuster. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
