The reality is, I know the 2A is safe. I'm just saying if the majority of Democratic politicians "had their way", they would pass legislation to infringe on your 2A right. To say otherwise is being dishonest.

Democrats have always had this slavery mentality towards American citizens: you dont need these guns, big government will protect you and keep you safe, give you shelter and food. Just vote for your local Democratic Master. LOl

It wouldnt have been difficult to get what was being called "Assault weapons". During that ban, semi auto rifles showed up for sale everywhere.

Simple as that.
The NRA has duped millions..in a bid for power..a largely successful bid. No one is coming for your guns..there is no incrementalism at work. This is not a socialist/communist plot. Those who believe so have been lied to..and are tools of the power brokers and corporate interests.

I know many Dems..who are ardent supporters of the 2nd amendment. You won't accept their support exists...because so many on the Far Right will accept only the complete inviolability of the 2nd..without the right to manage or control guns..a view that is NOT supported by the SCOTUS, BTW.
"as recently as 2008-2010--why were guns not banned?"

Because previously the dems LOST control BECAUSE they passed the Clinton so-called assault ban and their was vote backlash.

Times have changed,

"When the dems tried", as I said if they COULD they WOULD.

It is NOT for alack of trying.

And they will KEEP trying until they achieve their goal.

With the wild exaggerations by the left today, many MORE dems would vote for such changes.

" Far Right will accept only the complete inviolability of the 2nd."

The far left will accept only the complete eradication of the 2nd

People like feinstein have said,if she could she would confiscate ALL guns.



http://www.azquotes.com/author/4711-Dianne_Feinstein

There are many dems like her

P.S.

I don't believe I said ALL dems ars against guns.

I know may who are supporters of the 2ndamendment.

"You sir..are deluded."

You sir.. have your head in the sand.

Look up the NY, MD and Ca gun laws.

As with most things they are done 1 step at a time.



the NRA and its ilk."

You sir..are deluded.

Of course as they say, "When you have to resort to casting insults, you, have lost the discussion.

If you repeat your actions, do NOT expect a different outcome.

The so-call "assault" weapons ban (which was all cosmetic) by Bill Clinton did absolutely NOTHING to curb gun violence as was predicted when they were trying yo pass pass it and when it was signed.

Which is why it was let to lapse.
The AR-15 assault rifle was banned in California in 1989.

The propaganda ministry is using mass media and children to persuade people to become helpless victims and spare the lives of dangerous predators.
Florida legislators are real mensch, voting to secure the safety of predators at the expense of the victims.
For 15 minutes, at least.
