Opposition to Gun Control is called "Neo-Confederate"

On NBC opposition to gun control is called "neo-Confederate."

Here is a link to a YouTube video of the commentary.

I am not sure why the commentator refers to a "neo-Confederate thread." There is a brief reference to the Tenth Amendment movement and gun control.

It is interesting in that the terminology is being used in regular political discourse. When I started this research over 20 years old the term was known to just a few people.  I did not invent the term, it was first used by an editor of Southern Partisan magazine.
