And predictably, they are on the side of criticizing the NRA for having the audacity to suggest that bringing an AR-15 to Chipotle or your friendly neighborhood Greek diner might not be the best idea.

In the long-run, if this country becomes legislatively more hostile to gun ownership in the coming years and decades, it will be because people like this poisoned the well and destroyed their cause with their own excesses.

The NRA got this one right.  I'm not a huge fan of the NRA as of late, because they've moved further to the (I don't know if I'd call it "right", but I guess that's probably what fits best) right to a point that's just opposing Obama to oppose Obama.
