The thing about the NRA and especially of GOA is that both seem to have it backwards. The elevation of a weapon of war comes before the 2nd Amendment, rather than the 2nd Amendment determining the role guns should play in society
How so is it backwards for them to advocate for our rights?
Because regardless of the copious innocent deaths and superfluous destruction the object of their advocacy wreaks, they still lift up that right in every circumstance. Their principled stand for gun ownership is completely removed from reality. Neither the NRA nor the GOA are pragmatic, which would mean traingulating between the injurious realities of firearm ownership and the limits Scalia has referenced. Instead, it’s guns, everywhere, all the time.
Rights are only useful if they can be exercised. Between mass shootings, an epidemic of domestic violence, and just casual violence over football games and road rage incidencts, I’m hardpressed to see how they’re firearm advocacy as “protective” of anything. Dead people have no need of rights because they can’t use them.
The fact that you’re literally sitting here calling it “backwards” to act in accordance with principles. Having a hard time keeping up with the bullshit you peddle?

Yeah, I guess it checks out that you think it’s weird for people to have principles, since the concept is entirely foreign to you
What do you know of my principles or lack thereof?
