While the Brady Campaign, is worried about Starbucks.....Meanwhile, back at the statehouse....
The Gun Rights crew, is busy, getting legislation passed in the vast majority of this nation, Brady evidently does not deem this important, as their main effort appears to be applying pressure to Starbucks...who appears for the most part, to be IGNORING them.

As of Today, many pieces of pro gun legislation, has passed out of committee, and is going on the full votes, in a significantly pro gun, house and senate...In a state, with a pro-gun governor.

But yet, Brady, and most gun control groups, is worried about Starbucks......

This is simply, why we win...They don't even care to show up at the party, much less I doubt they even know where it is.

They are more interesting giving Obama a "F" and pushing an on-line petition, because a coffee shop don't tote their water. Well, they are founded, and lead, by Republicans, so this sort of thing, is to be expected.

Just a heads up, Virginia, is about to get rid of the stupid "concealed weapon ban" in a restaurant that serves alcohol.. When it hits the headlines, expect MSM and Brady, to promptly piss their pants... but hey, that online petition against starbucks is more important...

1. That is because they really have nothing to support opposition to any of the legislation.
Their entire line of reasoning has been proven to be false, over and over again. I think that is why a majority of the population and lawmakers are now ignoring them. Since they have very little political clout left, all they can do is try to get headlines by complaining about private businesses, and throwing temper tantrums when new legislation gets passed.


Reminds me an awful lot of PETA.........

2. Thank god. It's about time.
Practically everywhere I go, my gun goes with me. But if I happen to go to Ruby Tuesdays or someplace like that, my loaded handgun stays in my car. I can't conceal it there like I do everyplace else, and I don't want to freak out the sheep, or force a confrontation with the establishment. I just want to get some food like I do at Taco Bell.

Stupid fucking bullshit law.
