Socialist/Progressives such as Obama hope to defeat the Constitutional via a campaign of attrition. Here is how it works:

The video debate between a smug Progressive and an aggressive Michelle Malkin is typical of the fact that neither side is listening to other  -  it is just another argument folks are having with each other.  That is not to say that neither has a point to be made,  however.  Nor,  is it to say that I disagree with Michelle.  I do not  -  but,  in the end,  such discussions are only argumentative in nature and do not bring us closer to any real collective soltution(s). 

The Progressive believes that unregistered guns is the problem,  and pretends that he is not opposed to private gun ownership.  Michelle Malkin is effective in her defense of gun ownership,  but could have made the point to a greater degree,  that the three black racists who were looking to kill a white man,  would have used their fists (a point she tried to make, btw),  or knives or baseball bats . . . . they were going  to kill a white man,  period. 

What is sadly ignored,  by Progressives nationwide and gun grabbers alike, is the fact that gangland culture is much more the problem,  in our society.  But,  to criticize this,  one is necessarily talking about an issue that is more ethnic in population,  than white. 

While Progressives argue for the abolition of guns,  they forget that (a) nearly 90% of all murders are within or because of gangland violence,  and (b) gun ownership is systemic to constitutional law.  In other words,  private gun ownership is as foundational to America as is federalism (states rights),  free speech,  freedom of the press, and, religious freedom – all of which are currently under attack from the Progressive Left. 

Specifically,  what is ignored by the Progressive Left is the fact that our country is [perhaps] the only nation in the world that allows for private gun ownership as a matter of its constitutional law.  I write of “constitutional law,”  not merely “law,”  and in that distinction,  I mean to imply that all solutions to the problem of societal gun violence,  must be developed within the context of “constitutional law.”  While Obama simply ignores those parts of the Constitution that interfere with his personal agenda, such is not a real solution,  and,  in time,  court challenges more often than not prove point.

Understand that Obama has been challenged in the High Court some 25 times,  to date,  and has lost 15 of those cases due to the fact of his anti-

Constitutional assertions.  He owns the lowest win/loss percentage (39%) of any modern day president (since and including FDR).  Constitutional Law is extremely difficult to overcome because it requires a change to the Constitution that is popular and properly approved.  “Ignoring the Constitution” is not a properly approve course of action. 

Because of that fact,  the Progressives within the Democrat Party are waging a war of attrition as to the nation’s foundational law.  Rather than gaining the support of the larger majority,  the Progressive Left hopes to force societal change via various forms of anarchy.  Understand that “disregarding constitutional law”  ultimately leads to the death of that legal basis via “attrition.”   The reader should know that “they” do not need a working [populace] majority to accomplish their “legal” goals,  they only need judicial majorities.  Biased media reporting,  while critical to their success,  is not the actual turning point.  The Socialist/Progressive Left must have the court system of this nation and,  until or unless that happens, their ultimate goal of radical social change cannot ultimately succeed.
