"We Suspect the Lawsuit is Largely a Political Move"

[Use BugMeNot to bypass site registration.]

From Philadelphia, home of the Independence Hall Un World Heritage Site, comes these latest bleatings by the heirs of liberty about yet another gun lawsuit.

Note how "the gun...took a tangled route." I wonder if it consulted PriceLine or Travelocity to get the best deals.

A pawn shop "allegedly" sold it to a gun trafficker, one who passed all government-required checks before he could take possession of it. It certainly seems cause to trace that "tangled route" back to the original manufacturer so they can be included in the lawsuit.

"We're not going to argue the merits of this particular case right now," the editorialist lies. Or maybe he doesn't. He doesn't care about the merits--and neither do the subversives backing this legalized shakedown racket. They just want gun makers and sellers sued out of existence so that you and I can be disarmed.

Here's my favorite deliberate understatement: "So even though we suspect the lawsuit is largely a political move..."

Egad, Holmes! How could you possibly deduce that?

They do make one point I agree with:

"Arlen Specter and Rick Santorum support the Senate bill. Maybe they want to explain that to the Oliver and Durham families."

I wish they would. I wish they'd explain it to all of their constituents.

I wish these politicians who come to gun owners for support and get NRA endorsements would stop hiding from the gun issue except when they're in front of a friendly audience, and start aggressively using their bully pulpits for Second Amendment outreach and education. I wish they would explain the importance of the right of the people to keep and bear arms every chance they get, in front of every media outlet that pays them notice.
