From Dave Kopel over a Volokh:
Civil liberties organizations which tie themselves exclusively to one party put liberty at risk. In a two-party system, it is inevitable that each party will dominate some of the time. Civil liberties are safer in the long run when they have friends in both parties, and when those friends know that civil liberty organizations will reciprocrate their support,especially during tough elections.
Yes. The only reason we’ve been safe in this Congress is because we’ve accomplished making the Second Amendment a bipartisan issue.
If half of us were half as sensible as Dave Kopel …
