Posted by a very active/knowledgeable guy I know in the pro 2A community & who is extremely well respected 

If anyone wants to form a truly educated opinion about the legal landscape surrounding the Second Amendment, I strongly enourage you to watch Mark Smith at The Four Boxes Diner on YouTube.

He’s an actual member of the SCOTUS bar and doesn’t use clickbait headlines like many others.

Believe it or not, not all lawyers are created equal.  There are a lot of legal opinions, and a lot don’t matter.

He won’t ask for your money, and isn’t interested in creating cult of personality bullshit.

If you really want to learn, watch him.  You will have less fear of the government once you learn how to beat them.

You will also learn how being a member of a gun association and 2A advocacy have a similar relationship that a fish has to a bicycle.

There’s a lot of good work being done, largely misunderstood by GENPOP because the differences elude them.

If you just want to opine without qualification, don’t.

I am not compensated by Mark Smith in any way, and I approve this message.i
