Here’s where the factions stand on gun control legislation:
CLs: Increasing the power of the state to reduce individual liberty is always wrong.
Reactionaries: God, guns, and guts made America great. You have succeeded in taking God out of the public sphere, but you will never have my gun. Never.
PBPs: We don’t really care, but we rely on Reactionaries and CLs for support on tax cuts. This is payback.
CDs: Jesus didn’t exactly promote gun ownership and the slaughter of children in the New Testament.
And so, on this, as on so many issues, the party is divided, but the Reactionaries, as the largest faction, drive the train.
