    That, and pretty much everyone is for some degree of infringement, they just don’t want themselves to be infringed.

    SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED

    Oh, so you’re okay with a recently released from jail gang-member living next door being allowed to legally buy a full auto 50 cal, or a grenade launcher?

      Unfortunately that doesn’t work any more. The people who are still staunchly pro-gun after the last two decades of violence often just say “yes, I support convicted felons buying grenade launchers and mortars”.

      They’re confident it will never be anyone they care about getting killed because they only care about themselves. To them, an armed gang member next door is just a get out of jail free card waiting to be murdered with their cool gun.

      This will undoubtedly upset some gun toting lunatic who will want to claim they care about their family and that’s why they have guns, but that’s just more exceptionalism – every child that killed themselves with a gun or murdered their classmates had a parent who thought it would never be them.
