weren't a right wing issue they never would have become so important. That's because there wouldn't have been ALEC and NRA gun manufacturer supporting money going to so many politicians.
If gun rights issues had to stand on their popularity alone we wouldn't be talking about them. There wouldn't have been the last two SCOTUS opinions on guns. It took a right wing court to make that ruling. A court put there by right wing money.
