Joan Peterson, who is paid to advocate against Constitutionally Protected Rights:

This video reflects the views of the majority of Americans. Today, political leaders and media personalities have publicly admitted that they have been wrong about their views about guns. One even apologized

And then Americans who aren’t paid advocates, they just live under the freedoms protected by the Constitution how they think they can best serve their own lives:

The prospect of a renewed assault weapons ban in the wake of the Connecticut school massacre has set of a round of buying, as thousands of Americans head to their local gun store to secure the popular AR-15 — the model used by the school gunman — before potential government prohibitions on their purchase.

They are also buying the .223 ammunition used by the AR-15 and the type of high-capacity magazines covered under the last federal assault weapons ban, which Congress let expire without renewing.

The Colorado Bureau of Investigation says it set a new record for single-day background check submittals this past weekend.
In San Diego, Northwest Armory gun store owner Karl Durkheimer said Saturday “was the biggest day we’ve seen in 20 years. Sunday will probably eclipse that.”
In southwest Ohio, from dawn to dusk a Cincinnati gun show had a line of 400 waiting to get in, said Joe Eaton of the Buckeye Firearms Association.

“Sales were through the roof on Saturday,” said Eaton. “People were buying everything they could out of fear the president would try to ban certain guns and high-capacity magazines.”

And look at this!

One order for Magpul PMags was cancelled today at Traction Control.

At 5:30 AM I showed 9,330 units on hand, when the order was received (at 5:00 PM) the quantity available was zero. My distributor reported over 70,000 Magpul PMags were sold last weekend alone.

Honestly I think the Antis have gotten lean and hungry after all these crushing defeats, and promoting the most pathetic laws as “major victories”, and when it comes to blood dancing, the blood of children is the best for their dancing shoes. Sebastian notes that the antis pulled out professionally printed signs for their protests, that very likely were printed in advance, just waiting for a moment, ANY moment to distributed to their hundreds, tens, ones of supporters. We have elected officials who have wanted to pass bans for ages, but didn’t dare, now they may dare…while the people obviously don’t support them.

This may be a bridge too far for the antis!
