You mean "they won't kill people until they HAVE to?" Oh noooo, that's so horrible, using guns and violence as a last resort rather than murdering people before it comes to that?
That's a good thing dude.
Cool just as long as you don't want to take them from people who do want them and haven't proven themselves to be a danger to society. I don't care about people controlling themselves, just don't try to control others.
Tbh in this context they've compromised enough since 1934, the NFA, the GCA, the Brady Bill, endless pointless state feature bans, the '94-'04 AWB, Bumpstock ban, red flag "due process second" (which violates more rights than just the 2nd), ad nauseum. Have they got anything in return? The HPA or Constitutional Carry which they've been pushing for recently? No. How is it a "compromise" when one side keeps getting their way and chipping away at the right only for them to start chipping again after they get their "compromise?" When will enpugh be enough, after this AWB they're pushing for doesn't fix anything? After they ban 90% of handguns and rifles because they don't understand semi-auto, which they've been trying to do recently? No, they'll keep pushing until they can't because they won, and they're "not bullheaded?"
I was speaking more of a general psychology of each group than to the individual gun control issue. The legislation surrounding firearms has rarely been something that I concern myself with as it rarely can screw me over personally. There is so much lubeless anal going on from every seat of government, regardless of who's ass is in the seat to manage all of it, and I already have entirely rational anger outbursts daily from the ones I do concern myself with. I wish you the best in your fight and I will keep on mine. Guns aren't mine in general, aside from the mass shootings and school shootings, which, while stricter gun control could mitigate, are truly mental health issues indicative of a cripplingly deficient medical care infrastructure. If we dealt with problems with we'll paid social workers instead of police and did not stigmatize mental illness while lifting bully culture up on some pedestal like it is something that should be aspired to we would likely see a decrease in the mass killings that are plaguing the country and only increasing.
That said, I wish you the best on your hill and I salute your commitment to it.
