re: #154 EPR-radar

There was no obstacle to automobile regulation comparable to the second amendment. The protections for automobiles were common law principles which are inherently subject to revision as new cases come up.

that’s why i think arguing the 2A or lobbying for restrictions certain to be opposed are not winners.

i think the inroad is in laying bare the idea that a right without any accountability is so an absurd position to hold that it can’t really be done.

the goal is force the gun lobby to embrace this:
control your weapon.
accept swift and sever consequences if you dont

or they are actively advocating for a right that carries no personal responsibility for behavior that can have devastating effects on other citizens.

it doesn’t require them to do anything but acknowledge the position they’ve always held. we are responsible. it’s others who aren’t.

you get that far, the rest is details
