"Marlene Hoeber is feisty, tattooed, transgender, a self-described feminist, a queer activist - and a crack shot with her favorite 'toys,' guns of just about every kind."

So they're into guns but won't actually support the cause because they're misinformed, and most likely vote for polititians that hate them.

Strange group of people.

From the article:

"More regulations on lawful gun owners "are overprescribed political placebos that fail to cure ... the root causes of violence," the gun club said in a position statement. Instead of "window-dressing 'solutions' like so-called 'assault weapons' bans and magazine capacity restrictions," the group argued, government should back "mitigation for violence prevention: stronger mental health care, addressing poverty, homelessness and unemployment."

The group also views monetary disincentives to gun ownership, such as ammunition taxes, as "class barriers" blocking the poor from exercising their constitutional rights."


Now, I'm not sure just what to make of that.

Yeah, they definitely sound weird.  But based on those quotes, it sounds pretty good.  I'm guessing they're a pro-2nd group like Pink Pistols or Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership -- see video: No Guns for Negroes!

I can't argue with either of those statements.



I'm guessing we would disagree on how to address poverty, homelessness, and unemployment, though.

"If I walk into a gun store with an Obama T-shirt - which I wouldn't wear, because he's too conservative - I don't fit," joked Eric Wooten, a longtime California Democratic Party activist and member of the Liberal Gun Club."

Joke or not, if he is left of Obama this is type most of us fight in a civil war situation.

Nothing wrong with any of that.  



Don't care what you do or with whom in your private lives. Freedom means freedom to do things other than what I would do.  

If the right politicians would figure out that freedom and the economy are the two major issues elections would be a foregone conclusion.

Actually, they aren't too far off base, just not libertarian/Constitutionalist in thier objectives.

They ARE conceeding to social and cultural engineering, which considering it's Mexifornia and that sort of shit is genetic with those people, is to be expected.
Like the northeast, they are just too ignorant to know any better.

If anything, they sound a LOT like the Conservative statists, that we have an abundance of here.

These people are so dense. Our class division right now isn't terrible, in most major cities all types of income level reside and interact with each other on a regular basis, think salt n' pepper. When we look at a place with actual class barriers such as many South American countries your either RICH or POOR and that is exactly what would play out here given enough time, salt AND pepper. The very people that suggest these stupid ideals would find themselves on the wrong side of the fence rather quickly as they are with obongocare "I didn't think I was paying?!"  they thought themselves to be the "little" guy. As much as I hate the FSA the constitution protects their rights the same as Warren Buffet and as history has shown us with the Roman Republic the "poor" are the first to go and we are all "poor".

Or maybe they aren't one party voters? Put yourself into their shoes, and one politician hates you for owning guns, and the other hates you and considers you mentally defective for being queer. They have the option to vote for a politician that will allow them the freedom to express themselves, or the freedom to own guns. Who the heck do you want them do vote for? Demoncrats or the Republicants? Or throw away their vote for some other third party that will never see the light of day?

That may be true, but if they end up convincing more liberals to buy guns, own guns and support 2A rights within their own party this is a good thing.  I'd be tickled pink if supporting gun control became a toxic position for a politician on either side of the political spectrum.

I doubt it will ever happen, mind you.  But I don't doubt that getting more liberals to slap BFLs on their Priuses next to their 'Coexist' stickers can help move the Democratic party toward supporting gun rights.

Another did bring up a good point on Magazines,
What Kelly and many sportsmen like him fail to realize (or so it seems) is that Miller '39 still stands. Military equipment that is not otherwise regulated by the NFA is firmly under the protection of the Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms. Magazines manufactured for military use are 100% covered as well. Any attempt to reduce that, without prior invalidation both the Dick Act and the Miller decision, is unconstitutional.

Instead of "window-dressing 'solutions' like so-called 'assault weapons' bans and magazine capacity restrictions," the group argued, government should back "mitigation for violence prevention: stronger mental health care, addressing poverty, homelessness and unemployment."



The group also views monetary disincentives to gun ownership, such as ammunition taxes, as "class barriers" blocking the poor from exercising their constitutional rights."




Now, I'm not sure just what to make of that.
And she insists there are many politically liberal folks in California who are eager to shoot, learn marksmanship, buy and collect guns - or even own guns for self-protection - except "they think gun people are people they want nothing to do with."





They do not want to associate with you or I, thinking we spend our weekends dragging young black med students behind our pick up trucks, beating homosexuals out for a stroll with bats and generally picking our noses and reading nothing but comic books, and our mouths move when we do that.


Maybe one reason why Governor Moonbeam didn't sign one of the latest anti-gun bills a couple months ago...word is, he may be gearing for a run against Hilary in 2016.

ADDITIONAL SHOOTERS = WIN FOR US.

Whether they are ideologically "pure" is not relevant to whether

So at least the article is admitting that NPR is rabidly leftist.

Strange group of people.

From the article:

"More regulations on lawful gun owners "are overprescribed political placebos that fail to cure ... the root causes of violence," the gun club said in a position statement. Instead of "window-dressing 'solutions' like so-called 'assault weapons' bans and magazine capacity restrictions," the group argued, government should back "mitigation for violence prevention: stronger mental health care, addressing poverty, homelessness and unemployment."

The group also views monetary disincentives to gun ownership, such as ammunition taxes, as "class barriers" blocking the poor from exercising their constitutional rights."


Now, I'm not sure just what to make of that.

This.  Pro-gun is not a political party.  We've got friends on the other side of the isle.

While I agree that many of these people are depressingly ill-informed, they represent an important and apparently growing facet of the pro-2A movement. Rather than having to outright battle ant-gunners politically, these are the people who can change liberal politics from the inside. Enough of these people, and the DNC could take gun prohibition off of their national platform. Developments in this area could turn the 2A battle into something like the 30 Years War where at the end we simply forget why we are fighting or no longer have to do it anymore. Optimistic I realize, but not wholly unreasonable.
