Conservatives Must Prioritize the Second Amendment - The American Conservative

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

66% : Conservatives need to stop thinking gun rights are an issue about which we can compromise.
63% : They, and we, must learn you cannot claim to support the Second Amendment if you compromise on it.
59% : Elected Republicans have this mentality because conservative voters have given them a pass to cut corners off the Second Amendment.
52% : As we witnessed with the resent passage of the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, Senate and House Republicans who campaigned on protecting the Second Amendment were not only willing but happy to give a win to the anti-gun left with a whole slew of new gun-control provisions for absolutely nothing in return.
39% : Since nearly 70 percent of criminals committed their crimes with an illegally obtained firearm, more gun regulations will only hinder a minority of gun-related crimes.
26% : To compromise on gun rights is to necessarily compromise on abortion, taxes, immigration, school choice, welfare, right to work, and any other political issue.
