good points are made here about compromise when it comes to your rights;

People often ask me why I am so unwilling to “compromise” on gun control. In reality, I’m not. A compromise is supposed to mean both sides of an argument get something out of the deal. Neither side gets everything they want, but they both at least get something.

When people ask me what I would be willing to compromise on, I give them a simple answer: I would trade tougher background checks in exchange for nationwide concealed-carry reciprocity. If we are going to create a system where every gun purchaser is fully vetted through the FBI’s background check system, then we should give those vetted and trusted gun owners the right to carry their guns nationwide.

Gun control advocates usually gasp when I make this recommendation, as if the thought of actually having to agree to pro-gun reforms has never crossed their minds. The answer I get is almost always a hard “no,” and that tells me everything I need to know about the gun control movement’s intentions. Every gun control bill that passes is just one step toward an ultimate goal...........https://thefederalist.com/2019/08/22/compromise-gun-laws-always-mean-gun-control-wins/

it 1984 when one anonymous phone call can cause police to descend on your house, seize your firearms, and shoot you if you resist, then you no longer live in a nation of laws but one moving towards controlling every step you make and every word you utter and its here every day though your tv won't tell you that, in this way. you have one set of laws for the members of the government and another set for everyone else, you are not being governed, you are being ruled.

another item i haven't yet read beyond this bit below, but further reading is certainly in the cards as it seems to be what our future is, or as the red queen, and trump also said: verdict first, trial later;


Spare me the talking points on the legal limits of RFL at the present time. All they needed to do for now is get the laws into place. Rest assured they will be administratively and bureaucratically tweaked and adjusted so that it gets easier for the boys wearing the Oakleys to kick your door in, and those bureaucratic and administrative tweaks will make it harder and more expensive for you to get your guns back. Assuming that you ever get them back at all..........https://www.americanpartisan.org/2019/08/are-the-new-red-flag-laws-the-gun-grab-weve-been-warned-about/

ain't even read this yet but tell us this sentence below ain't so;


Every single allegedly neutral, nonpartisan, super-professional institution has turned out to be, in fact, a bunch of partisan hacks shilling for the permanent political party..........https://pjmedia.com/instapundit/340363/

this lead provides some thinking you might find useful;


Whatever you may think of Trump, the result of the last three years is proof that elections don’t matter. This shameless refusal by public officials to apply the law to Washington insiders makes a mockery of the rule of law. Throw in the stunning dishonesty of the mass media and the metastasizing surveillance state and it is impossible for even the most gullible to remain a civic nationalist............http://thezman.com/wordpress/?p=18535
