Here is the thing about that. You can’t use that as “crazy” anymore.
This presidential cycle a candidate stood up and said “hell yes we’re coming to take your [most popular rifles in America]”, it was met with studio applause and not one single candidate interjected with a “hey now wait”. Biden was the “most critical” saying he wasn’t sure that would be constitutional but then also said the guy that made the statement would be his chosen “gun tzar”.
The New Jersey NICS (background check system) was off for weeks because of Covid19. Meaning it was ENTIRELY illegal to buy / sell / trade a firearm in the entire state. This is the system they want for the whole county.
The Gov and legislature in VA just publicly floated using the National Guard to carry out their gun ban proposal.
So... I don’t have a stated position on the topic, but that example of “look how crazy these people are! They think people are trying to do exactly what they say!” Isn’t a good one.
