    Getting rid of insnimate objects ( read guns) in the hands of the disturbed certain does make me safer.

    No it doesn't.

    What makes you safer is getting rid of the disturbed person.

    And you are an expert on polling? This is Gallup not Rasmussen.

    We have laws that allow people to murder other people or for mentally ill people to commit violence?

    Don't think we do, actually.

    There are way more than 3 people who are responsible for that false flag event, and my bet is most of them wear business suits with US flag lapel pins. Many of them hold, or have held, high political office.

    I'm looking at a February 2018 Economist/YouGov poll where 40% of Democrats admitted to favoring a repeal of the 2A.

    40%

    If the opportunity presented itself, I suspect even more would jump on the bandwagon...

    Paranoia is a mental condition, and the sky cannot fall. It doesn't look like you are interested in discussing facts or reality.

    The reality is that individuals do lose their right to defend themselves. Here in Los Angeles, no CCWs are issued unless you are a politician, judge, or a celebrity. A 100lb female does not need a machine gun to protect herself from a 200lb rapist. She gets no right to protection here in the bluest part of the bluest state.

    What kind of heat do you think our LA gang members pack?

    Uh, she didn't use an AR and she was a new pistol buyer, both pertinent points. Only in liberal la la land do you think you even remotely have a point here.

    Yes, my point is that pretending to portray one incident as representative of all mass shootings is idiotic.

    No we don't.

    That was a liberal PROGRAM, not a law.

    Not completely true. Our basic handgun classes for new shooters are full as are our carry permit applicants. These are not people that already own firearms but most will after completing their training.

    What you call "stockpiling" guns is what many other people call "collecting" & collecting firearms is no different than collecting old coins, cars, stamps, Civil War Artifacts and the list is endless. The difference is that you can enjoy target shooting & can hunt with your different WW2 rifles for example.

    I suspect that you are probably talking about AR-15s, AK-47s, high capacity magazines etc but I don't understand why someone would buy something that would be illegal to possess after they are banned unless they were to sell them on the new Black Market that would emerge with the introduction of various gun ban schemes at work around the country.

    the left is not against the 2nd, the left does think machine guns and other weapons of war should be harder to get though

    yeah, like the black market for machine guns, all the mass shooters use them....

    unlike Drugs that are easily grown or produced, and sold in huge quantity, machine guns, ar-15's ect, would be hard to produce and sold in lower quantity as they have less demand, making them not worth the risk of prison time

    If you're poor in the city you're going to go after a firearm like the Pearl of Great Price. You have to. And you're not going to talk to the metrosexual test passers.

    Other than in museums I haven't seen a machine gun since 1968. They're unaffordable and the red tape is unbearable except for the quite wealthy.
