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. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
