The answer is probably yes.
I think we’re getting to the point now where even the more cynical gun rights supporters need to admit that President Trump is doing pretty well on Second Amendment issues.
We need a Supreme Court that is willing to actively police the hostile circuits and summarily reverse them frequently. We also need Judge VanDyke to become Justice VanDyke.
Of course, it isn’t really about the GLOCK switches at all. Antigunners salivate at the chance to ban one of the most popular handguns in the country.
Lots of things had gone into the pressure cooker that eventually exploded into the American Revolution, but the ultimate intolerable act, the spark that made the patriots decide it was time to start shooting was the British attempt to disarm them.
