Robb Allen said it right: this is just the beginning of the fight. Now we have to follow up.
What can the blogosphere do? We’re the new journalists, folks. Let’s follow Bitter’s lead and be proactive about it. Bitter, got any advice for us?
As for today, I have a buddy, one of the few remaining Zoroastrians in the world and an immigrant from India who only recently got his green card after a five year wait. During that time I’ve been educating him on gun rights, none of which he could exercise. But now… he’s going to take the test to get his California Handgun Safety Card TODAY and I’m going to sell him the Ruger Single-Six in .17 HMR shown at top left. For a buck.
It’s not really newsworthy anymore, there’s too much other analysis going on to get their attention. Next opportunity is all local to the next case, or when the next big case is going to the Court. That’s why I didn’t blog yesterday or read the opinion. I had to get the pitch out before they were too bombarded with other material. 🙂
I think this will have legs. There are still “special-interest” pieces that can be written in the weeks ahead.
What an awesome thing to do. Pay it forward, it will always reward you. Hats off and hurrah!
