Know the Opposition: Coalition to Stop Gun Violence
CSGV Crying About ‘Mean Tweeters' Did You Make The Cut?
New York – -(AmmoLand.com)- Like the Brady Campaign, the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence has taken a back seat to other anti-Second Amendment groups, primarily the Bloomberg-funded Moms Demand Action and March 4 Our Lives. However, this is a group Second Amendment supporters need to understand, since its approach is a more basic version of what we see from anti-Second Amendment extremists today, particularly in the quasi-religious furor.
This group has been around for 45 years – and it began as a project of the United Methodist Church called the National Coalition to Ban Handguns. The term coalition is not inaccurate, either – about four dozen organization are involved with this anti-Second Amendment group, including the American Academy of Pediatrics, the Presbyterian Church (USA), and the National Urban League.
When former Brady Campaign president Dan Gross discussed the “ideological hatred” of Second Amendment supporters at a pro-Second Amendment rally this past weekend, CSGV was one of the groups he was probably talking about. Why? One thing to note from the list, on an archived version of CSGV’s web site, is that a number of the member groups are religious in nature.
