Is Media Cracking The 'Code'

Buried in the third paragraph of an Associated Press report about mass shootings and 'gun control' is an acknowledgement which essentially explains the difference between political parties and their approach to crime prevention and constitutional rights.

"More than half the states have enacted substantive new laws this year regarding gun policies or school safety measures," the AP report says, "most often tightening firearm restrictions in Democratic-led states and loosening them in Republican-led ones."

The statement underscores why the Second Amendment community regards Democrats as "the party of gun control/confiscation," and increasingly throws its weight behind GOP candidates and incumbents. In their view, Republicans are at least trying to protect the right to keep and bear arms while Democrats want to destroy it, or erode it to the point that having a firearm is a government-regulated privilege, not a fundamental right protected by the Second Amendment.
