The president of the NRA did su...Yes . . . and no. <br />The president of the NRA did support getting rid of Gun Free Zones, and building on the work of John Lott, did a credible job of explaining why Gun Free Zones = Death Zones. That's the "no." Some Libertarians refuse to acknowledge when conservatives get it right. <br /><br />The "yes"? It's that when Newtown happened and the NRA was pushed to the wall, some of its reps actually listened to Libertarians and libertarian-minded individuals. Some Libertarians have to be reminded that we stand on principle, so that we have an influence. <br /><br />So, don't buy into the "wedge issues" and the false fronts, (like Occupy Wall Street adn teh NRA), and point out the errors. BUT acknowledge when individuals within those groups learn and take a principled stand. <br />Elisheva Hannah Levinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16061377724926154037noreply@blogger.com
