I think it's this, really.
When even the highly biased polls show that a lot of people in the 30s and under demographics are against gun bans, that's a sign that gun abolitionists are on the losing end of the conflict.
Actually? 🧐
Well, in any case, I shouldn't be surprised that common people who own guns for home defense, hunters who hunt their own game, and farmers and ranchers who kill of varmints feel "underrepresented" in the gun debate, if nothing else.
For starters, when the Corporate Media doubles down on their illiteracy via made-up terms like "assault weapon" or "assault-style weapon". Or, worse yet, incorrectly referring to semi-auto firearms as "assault rifles" — even when civilian models aren't even capable of fully automatic fire, because those are mostly banned. Even as someone who's not so much as
touched a gun, I have no trouble recalling these at the drop of a hat. Weird (or perhaps, not so weird) that journalists who cover this stuff can't say the same...
The second ammendment needs to be abolished because the founding fathers never could have anticipated modern assault weapon ghost guns that can fire a 30 caliber magazine clip in half a second, this has tripled the casualty rate in conflicts and has made what some call a 'non stop warfare' effect. In addition too many guns nowadays have the shoulder things that go up, and that is terrifying.
Now that that the jokes are out of the way, how do you guys decipher "Shall not be infringed"?
In fact, even without "Shall not be infringed!" being blatantly explicit, I'd think the 2nd Amendment being enshrined precisely to guarantee the right to keep and bear arms as a fail-safe against a tyrannical government implies the private citizenry ought to have enough firepower to meaningfully resist them, not just for self-protection or maintaining a livelihood in their day-to-day lives.
Therefore, it makes no sense to give a government that could one day turn tyrannical the authority to decide what weapons you can or can't have. Because then, tyrannical elements within the US government will use and abuse their power to deprive you of what you need to defend yourself, so that by the time they're ready to pounce, it's already too late — which misses the whole point behind
why the 2nd Amendment is there to start with! 🤦
