The left are getting criticism primarily because they cheered his murder, not because they won't honor him. > Why mourn when it's clear no change is going to come of it? Well, as I wrote at length, I think there are many things that we could change that would improve matters. I just don't believe in stripping civilians of the right of self defense. > What I will tell you is if on a federal level, concealed carry was made damn near impossible everywhere with the tradeoff being open carry everywhere, that's a thing there might actually be daylight on. No, there is no daylight there. Why should we trust that you'd stop with a concealed carry ban? Progressives have already banned open carry in California and other countries. And much of the deterrent effect of gun ownership comes from the fact that criminals don't know who is carrying.
