216. Amen! When Reagan said he wanted to "Get the government out of
the lives of people" lots of people thought he meant giving the little guy more freedom. However what the Reagan Revolution has meant MORE government in the lives of people, more business control over peoples lives thru workplace privacy reductions and mandatory overtime, mandatory drug testing in the military and court support of drug testing of employees without reasonable suspicion.
The Dems could really make some headway on this individual liberty aspect, and private gun ownership is part of it.
Right now the Dems say they support the right of people to hunt BUT- and that is where they lose. They need to just say the first part and not give the issue more exposure.
