Patrick got published at NRO, debunking the myth that the GOP can't woo the Latino vote.

But maybe Gimpel and Kauffman should have read the election statistics. Bush actually sliced a 51-point Clinton/Gore margin among Latinos in 1996 nearly in half, to 27 points.

Lyn points out the Pink Pistols, a group I thought I had linked to, but apparently not. The Pink Pistols are Second Amendment acitivsts who aim to "protect the firearm rights of the 'alternative sexuality' communities." Lyn says:

Probably not what the [right wing] have in mind when they talk about the right to bear arms, but that's just too bad!

On the contrary, it's mainly the liberals who get tied up in knots about this group, because they so neatly deflate most of the gun-banners' arguments. The Pink Pistols are exactly what the Second Amendment is about - the right of individuals to protect themselves from violence and tyranny. I pointed this out several months ago. Anyone who truly believes in the individual rights enshrined by the Second Amendment will welcome the Pink Pistols with open arms.
