It frustrates me to no end when I see commenters on various articles saying that all they want are reasonable restrictions, no one wants to ban guns, etc.
We're living it in MA. The laws here are completely nonsensical, designed to confuse, poorly written, open to, "reinterpretation", etc. The laws around what pistols can be sold here tends to be my main example since there is just no reason, logic, or objectivity behind the AG's secret list at all, whatsoever. CA's new ammunition laws are just beyond ridiculous, in addition to all the other ridiculous laws they have.
Maybe some of those commenters don't want to ban guns, but the people they are supporting do. They want exactly the same kinds of obfuscated nonsense laws we have here nation wide to give the government the right to a subjective opinion over whether someone can own firearms or not, what kind of firearms it feels like letting us have, etc.
And more than that, they want to do all this without any respect to other, non-gun related, rights. The current draft of the ERPO is a great example. Property rights? Due process? Nah, we don't need to respect those things because GUNZ.
