Any signs of another panic in gun shops?

We have a R majority, no one is losing seats over not doing something about guns. Fuck the NRA, and the libshit "R"s like the one from New York.

Saying this is ok is like fudds being ok with anything that doesn't hurt their hunting shotguns. It may be a niche product, but it's even sillier to consider banning when it's easy to do without a stock without (just not as well) but can be recreated at home really too. Bump boards etc.

Ceeding this is horseshit unless it's part of a trade for the suppressor bill. Even that is questionable but at least it's a trade. Not like caving will get any recognition from left voters.

Walmart and Cabel's remove SF stocks from their website

I spoke to an individual this morning who has pallets of Slide Fire stocks in his shop. He told me that Slide Fire called him and asked to "buy back" any extra stock he had so they can fill orders because they ran out. He said he shipped them (6) pallets..

Case in point.

What you're ignoring is that when things with this kind of visibility happen, it causes a huge swell amongst the self-described moderates who "want to do something". They don't know what "something" is but they know it's not nothing. When this happens, you have to have a multi-pronged response. If you just say "no" to everything as many want to do, you risk being labeled as such and all your responses get ignored. "Oh, I don't care what they say about universal background checks or high capacity magazines because they wouldn't even discuss ______".

The pressure to "do something" will ease as time goes on but we have to get past the ground swell created by the immediacy of the event. That immediacy is precisely what the gun control totalitarians are trying to take advantage of and precisely what we have to take from them. They know this as well as we do and that's why they keep exerting constant pressure.

As Bruce Lee said, "be like water." I think that's exactly what the NRA is trying to do right now.

The problems are that:

1. They will NEVER allow the pendulum to swing the other direction, so any consession is a permanent loss this side of a civil war.

2. There will ALWAYS be another event which allows them to take the next incremental step - and if an event doesn't happen naturally then one will be engineered. This pattern will continue indefinitely as long as results are obtained (see point #3)

3. If LE dealt with kidnapping/terrorist/ransom demands in that way, we'd see no end in escalations - my understanding that this is the very reason why acquiescing to ransom/demands is almost universally rejected in LE circles (if this is incorrect, someone with direct experience here can chime in)

4. They don't listen to anything we say anyway, so fuckem' - go into it with the understanding that they will NEVER be happy, even (especially) if they get what they want, and understand that we can ignore their pissing and moaning just as effectively as they can ignore logic, reality, and cause/effect relationships...

Just ask them why do they trust you with one gun but not ten? You'll usually find out that they would prefer you have no guns because if they trust you with one gun, ten shouldnt be any different but they can't handle that thought. So they revert to "no guns!" once you try to show the holes in their thinking.

If you give a mouse a cookie.

Conservatives never seem to learn the lesson. The left does not give, sway or concede. Compromise to them is for everyone else to give them what they want, either immediately or incrementally.
