Congress from that. Look, i will say on my side of the aisle, we are one party. Obviously this is a hard issue to talk about but i understand and support what the nrcc is doing, i just think members of congress should be removed from it.

He came in in 1970. You know, when we first got elected in 1970, the nrcc raised money for us. The nrcc gave us money.

Now, professor mitchell op pined on some of these issues and heller established an individual right to bear arms under the Second Amendment but its remarkable also because both the scalia majority and Justice Stevens dissent went to the public meaning of the the Second Amendment. Will it endure . And that is among his greatsest legacies. So if we could have as short an answer as complex topic as that can generate.
