Most people on the left are not advocating for banning all guns, ...
We understand how the left operates … incrementalism. AR-15's today, long guns tomorrow, handguns next week. Bump stocks yesterday, magazines holding over six rounds today, an "ammo tax" next week. Gun registration yesterday, a firearms owner database tomorrow, confiscation next week. Mandatory gun safes and trigger locks yesterday, fingerprint-reader firearms tomorrow.
The line is in the sand, "No farther". I reject your statement … it is apparent to me that the left wants gun ownership limited to bodyguards of politicians and celebrities, and some police. Oh … and thugs and criminals, because by definition they don't give a flying eff about the law.
This is Wayne LaPierre from NRA, and I approve this message.
Depends on what problem you are trying to solve. If you are trying to reduce the surplus population, it's a good one. If you are trying to regress the country to the days of frontier justice, it's a good one.
Its none of your business what LAW ABIDING US CITIZENS own.
the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
I recently finished watching the Godless miniseries on Netflix. ( Excellent, btw) It is a Western set in the 1880's in New Mexico. Unlike most Westerns, this one is about a town inhabited, mostly by women who know how to use a gun and have good reasons to do so. Nothing like 2 or 10 dozen outlaws riding into a mining town looking to have their way.
Put a different spin on high body count mass shootings.
The time period was nearly 100 years after the 2nd amendment was passed. Nonetheless, one can easily see how the right to bear arms was necessary to survival, in the Wild West.

There are more firearms than people in the US. One- third of the adult population own guns. They are left, right and in between.
Some of them use the " incrementalism ", just as you have.
Seriously can't imagine why any rational person would oppose fingerprint- reader firearms. That alone would eliminate the overwhelming majority of gun violence in urban areas.
The CDC lists anyone up to age 25 who dies from a gun as a "child" death so they can include gang killings to inflate the numbers.
And many on C-D discounts suicides from guns to deflate the numbers.
