“Antigun advocates have always faced an uphill battle in this country.
Americans have, to begin with, a constitutional right to gun
ownership. Today, half of American households exercise this right,
owning a total of about 250 million guns; and over 99 percent of those
households do so in a responsible manner. To fight for major
restrictions on an item that plays such a valued part in the lives of
so many people looks like a nearly impossible task. So if you’re
really committed to the effort, and you want to win, what do you do?
Simple: You lie.” –Dave Kope
