[QUOTE="mightymouse, post: 2464449, member: 15253"] Here in the real world, a "no compromise organization" in politics will go nowhere. Politics, by its very nature, is the art of compromise. You can argue that you have the Founders and even the Almighty himself on your side until you are blue in the face, but the other side will still have an agenda that they are just as passionate about, and they are just as unwilling to bend as you are. So, either both sides toe their respective lines and nothing gets done, or some sort of compromise is reached and each side feels it has salvaged something from the whole debacle. In the American system, compromise is a neccessary condition. You don't always get everything you want. Maybe, DirtyDawg, you can tell us which of the other pro-gun organizations you champion is strong enough to dictate public policy by fiat--they'd probably be as surprised to hear that as we are.
