“We need every gun owner in New Mexico to vote in every election, and remember this outrage when they do,” said CCRKBA Managing Director Andrew Gottlieb. [More]
Here’s the problem with that as a political strategy:
Every gun owner, especially the new ones, is not necessarily a Republican, and not necessarily a 2A supporter over other issues like abortion.
Voter party demographics ensure Republicans are hopelessly outnumbered.
New Mexico Democrats understand how “pathway to citizenship” advocacy will only solidify and widen the gap and are organized and working continuously to make that happen.
And all credible polling and real-world experience tell us that will result in Democrat supermajorities that can pass and uphold any “law” they like. Why else does anyone think Chuck Schumer is pushing this for 30+M illegals?
Not to put too fine a point on things, but last time you weighed in on this, your position was:
“SAF and CCRKBA only deal with the issue of gun rights. While I personally oppose amnesty and a pathway to citizenship for people here illegally, immigration policy and issues like abortion, global warming, health care and others are not part of our mission statement, articles of incorporation or approval for our non-profit tax status.”
Yeah? If that has not changed, why not take the challenge…?
