The Blowup That Didn’t Have to Happen

We bring this to your attention because the facts upon which we made our original video have changed, and you deserve to know that. It also means that some who have placed a lot of weight into this issue, believing it was the straw that broke the camel’s back, should also reevaluate what weight they attach to this. [Watch]

Yes, it was the court that ruled to provide the membership lists, but what the Bondi apologists are all giving a pass to is that it was DOJ that “Ruined a Big Win“:

So 5:59 what the United States Department of 6:00 Justice proposed is that it would apply 6:02 only to the named plaintiffs and to any 6:05 member of the organization who was 6:07 members of the organization way back in 6:09 2020 when the complaint was filed and 6:12 only if they are identified.

I guess there’s more to be gained circling the wagons and beating up on Dudley, who, in my opinion, did not read the room for what is either possible or likely, and practically guaranteed the apologists and competitor rice bowl groups would seize the opportunity to pile on NAGR, and significantly, ignore DOJ being the catalyst.

Note it didn’t “clarify” that it doesn’t want lists until after the brouhaha broke out, and this could have all been avoided if gun owners and the administration had a way to coordinate expectations with realities beforehand and avoid the chronic bipolarity that drags everyone along with it.

The ultimate absurdity is young adults being old enough to vote for the government to tell them they’re not old enough to own guns.
