My problem with compromise is there has been plenty of it demanded by their side and all it does is take from ours. This cake comparison was quite a good read - viewtopic.php?f=23&t=61390&" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

While I can understand the idea that some of the things they are proposing are not horrible and I could personally live with it (not like it, live with it) the things that are not being discussed or the things we 'win' by compromising will soon be back on the table and they will take some more. When there is not something so simple to concede, what will we do then? At a certain point you have to say enough is enough and IMO now is that time. If we continue to compromise we will eventually end up with nothing.

To say we aren't bringing anything to the table is troubling as well. I know the intent is in the right place but if we do not challenge what they are doing full bore we may lose more than we think. The NRA has presented options which are a good step in the right direction, that is not 'nothing'. Enforcing current laws, allowing more people to carry and in more places, and offering trained protection in our schools are all ways to help without limiting law abiding citizens.

I've read it several times here but it's one we all should remember, the government does not give us rights, they protect them. You don't protect one right by limiting or taking away another.

People saying that compromise is ok bothers me, it seems like the crack in public opinion they are looking for to open the flood gates on full 'reform'.
