| First he says "keep the laws that work", and then he gives a list of laws that don't work and says we need to keep them... |

I don't know what article you were reading, Mickey.
Here's what he actually said:
Magazine Capacity Restrictions: "Let’s get rid of this failed law."
Outlaw Semi-Automatic Weapons: "Gun prohibition failed to disarm criminals, so let’s get rid of it."
Prohibit Private Citizens from Owning Firearms: "Prohibition fails, so let’s get rid of it."
We need more gun-free zones: "Since murderers like them, let’s get rid of gun free zones."
And finally: "[I] want to get rid of these gun control laws that don’t work." |

Phorto, that would be the article I skimmed.
When I saw 'Demand Universal Background Checks' as the first point, I pretty much stopped reading, so I missed him tearing that demand down, not making it. |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
