This was too long to post here, but I felt it made great points. In any event, it's about the single best thing I've ever read on DailyKos, although admittedly, I don't regularly read there.


What I'm really interested in are the opinions of the DIAC lefties on this column
 
Progressives who hate the 2nd Amendment are wedded to their ideology, nrabroad
to the Constitution; look at how some of them abuse the 1st Amendment when the subject of violent video games or political financing or talk radio comes up. The 2A is little more than an obstacle to the higher purpose of getting guns out of the hands of the general public, who are too stupid to be trusted with them.

They're just like fundamentalist Christians who want to violate people's freedoms, also for a presumed higher purpose. They love the "free exercise thereof" in the 1A, but it doesn't mean they are Constitutionalists (or that they even understand that phrase).
