Nope.

But a "supermajority" does want firearm regulations. First, you have to define "supermajority". It isn't a statistical term. It could mean 55%, 60%, or 66.66666666666666666666666666%.

60% of US citizens want stricter firearm regulations
71% of US citizens want magazine limits.
69% of US citizens want the 94 AWB back.
88% of US citizens want private sales subject to background checks

Perfect example of silly. Want less deaths due to firearms, address the root causes. Start enforcing the 2000 plus firearms laws we already have.

Restricting a firearm over it's looks that gets used in homicides less than fists and knives is a perfect example of silly. Want less deaths due to firearms, address the root causes. Start enforcing the 2000 plus firearms laws we already have.

This one will be tough to enforce, not that I have an issue with it.

Don't enforce the 2000 plus laws we already have. Abolish them and stop creating new ones. Every one of them is illegitimate.

There's a need for it because there's always gonna be tyrants who want to control you. The 2a is there is there so we can tell the British, commies, and now the democrats to **** off. This right is clear as day yet people still constantly infringe way more than with any other right. Same people who try to invent "rights" aka free stuff out of nowhere want to claim actual rights don't matter.

Do any of these same people want us to actually punish law breakers? Do they want castle doctrine and stand your ground laws? 3 strikes? no ? Constitutional carry for any law abiding citizen? Or just more regulations that empower the criminals.

We'll need bg checks before anyone can vote as well. Also abolish all mail in votes. Allowing someone a vote who's too feeble, dumb, lazy, to turn in a ballot is just as dangerous as letting someone vote by mail and having some unknown party collect it for them.

Let's be honest. No one is coming for peoples firearms. They are just going to legislate them to the point where people don't want to be a felon, or can't afford them, or afford the ammo...etc. There are so many creative ways, for our elected officials to disarm the law abiding American public without touching the 2A.

And the anti gun people will just sit there and say " what's the problem, the 2A is still intact, no one came for your guns"...
