Gun Control & RKBA

As I've said numerous times, Oregon and Washington were 'shall issue' well before Texas & Arizona. An inconvenient truth that the media won't touch, and "progressives" are therefore ignorant. Then too, when a state goes shall-issue it's not like suddenly the number of guns in public skyrockets........only a relatively small percentage of gun owners choose to exercise their right. Also, unimpeachable law enforcement stats from Texas & Florida prove that permit holders *are not* "spoiling for a fight" as many pro-restriction supporters dishonestly suggest. But hey -- "moral" poutrage needs to trump TRUE liberal values and the relatively weak deserve no force multiplier in defense against evil.

*On college campuses: "trigger warnings", "micro-aggressions" and "safe spaces".

*Stupifying failure to differentiate between criticism of a doctrine (Islam) and bigotry. (insanely conflating the two)

*Identity politics

*Culture war on the gun issue

I don't see a bright future for the party until we address these issues.

Proud to be a California liberal --- NOT to be confused with "progressive".
