I know the right to self protection outweighs anything you say.

unless the 2nd amendment is repealed, which would take voting to appeal in 38 states or the supreme court illegally changing the constitution, the 2nd amendment will never go away.

and if by some wild happenstance the 2nd amendment was repealed, there are 350 million guns in this country. maybe a third of law abiding citizens would give them up voluntarily. the rest would not.

can you image the government forcibly entering homes, searching them, and taking guns from citizens? that is a scary thought which would not end well for anyone.

Problem is we are losing more lives to guns than saving in this country. We have the highest murder rate in the developed world, thanks to easy access to deadly firearms.

It's too easy to kill fellow Americans, either on purpose or by accident.
