It seems many posters here believe that Democrats "aren't coming for your guns."
We've heard this over and over, yet every time a madman does something illegal (as long as he's not black), the left beats us over the head with more gun control proposals.
The big enchilada is the 2A in general. It stands in the way of the erosion of gun rights for our citizens like no other line of human rights in history, and it has been chipped away at since at least the 1930s.
Given the the solution for Democrats is to ban, abolish, tax, or repeal a lot of things:
1. Abolish ICE!
2. Defund the police!
3. Ban AR-15s!
4. Tax ammunition!
5. Ban bump stocks!
6. Ban "hi cap" mags!
7. Ban legal adults from buying guns until 21!
Does anyone here really believe that if the Democrats ever had a filibuster-proof majority and the White House (along with enough state legislatures to vote for it to satisfy amending the constitution) , that they WOULDN'T repeal the 2nd Amendment?
I could see Democrats taking the "Joe Camel" approach to the situation. Basically banning weapon designs (exterior only here) that have rails and other accessories to dress them up as "Military Issue" rifles. They could make the case that was made about Joe Camel which is the design is meant to attract kids and young adults to those firearms which leads to dangerous outcomes. Cigarettes remained legal but the use of the cartoon that attracted young people to them was tossed.
In effect, you are outlawing the look or cosmetic portion of the gun without affecting functionality. No more looking like Rambo when leaving the Gun store, instead, you look more like Elmer Fudd.
The last thing a teen wants to do is look like they are on a 1950s Deer or Turkey hunt.
So in other words, have the government forcibly disarm its citizens.
It's not about controlling crime it's about absolute power and control over all of us. That's always been the plan of the LWNJ's.

"There are only a few laws in history that are universally applicable. One of these is that the ruling classes do not want the peasantry armed. They will do what they can to convince you that to be armed is dangerous. They will attempt to do this while they themselves are surrounded by armed body guards. Idiots will not notice this hypocrisy and sycophants will ignore it. Fools will surrender their arms in the name of "safety". They will insensibly surrender their liberty at the same time. This is how slaves are made."

You are so right! Look at the way the Democrats are trying to ban abortion or ban what can be said in school classrooms.
As soon as the RWNJ's hear anything that stops prospective mass murders from obtaining high powered weapons of mass destruction they come up with all these tin foil hat conspiracy's. Why the republican party want these mass murderers to have the best possible equipment possible to slaughter our children is the question we should really be asking.
Why does the Democratic Party focus on the tool and not the operator? We need to bring back mental institutions. Some people are not fit to participate in society, but do not belong in prison.

"Shall not be infringed"
"A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state",
But no, I wouldn't abolish the second amendment. I would make it more difficult for 18 year olds to buy weapons designed for the sole purpose of killing numerous people quickly and efficiently. The past several shooters were quite young and almost certainly would not have been institutionalized even when those pits of hell existed.
