as i have advocated on this forum numerous times over the last several years, to succeed in obtaining our goals we need to collaborate viable goals at the state level and move nationally across the country. IMHO the main stumbling block to meeting our goal(s) is the egotistical entities, in some case multiple individuals, at the state level who refuse to look at the big picture outside their little confining borders all under the guise of their mantra ~ we know what is best for our state!! how did that mentality work in Texas & FL?
quote...groups have taken a page from one of the most successful campaigns in history: the gay rights movement's effort to win same-sex marriage...the unexpectedly rapid victory for same-sex marriage represented only the latest notch in the LGBT movement's belt. unquote.
we wonder why as a group we consistently fail to move forward is because our opponents have already climbed aboard the strategy bandwagon, , quote We have been borrowing from their playbook for years,” says Dan Gross, president of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence...The fight for immigration rights borrowed literally from the LGBT movement. unquote

personally, i believe if you peel back the onion you will discern bloomy's girls have been following the LGBT strategy playbook from the beginning...
i even recently managed to get the resistive chap from Utah to acknowledge the LGBT's methodology as viable; I have talked to others privately at length about working towards consolidating state leaders to meet after putting their egos in their pockets so they could reach consensus on viable obtainable goals. then, move on to other state meetings until there was a national consensus everyone could push nationally.
all to no avail. darn, come on folks, even the nice LEs managed to push their carry agenda across the country and now 'correction officers' want to play and won a court decision saying they can.
bottom line, with a couple of state exceptions who are doing an exemplary job IN THEIR STATE...we blame the legislators.... i am afraid i personally blame the egotistical leaders of the grassroots entities...prime example, even SC has LGBT marriage ~ no gun rights, but by golly, they do have LGBT marriage.
i personally do not expect a national gun permitting activity whatsoever.
