I know that sounds like a satisfying outcome - but very similar things have already happened - over and over and over again - in regards to previous laws passed that were known to be turds when they were proposed - and it doesn't stop these idiots.
It's a universal trait of leftists that they simply DO NOT think things thru. So they'll just pass the law - some Democrat will get swept up in it - and they'll either just let the person go - or they'll turn around come up with some reason to blame gun owners - or the right wing in general.
We're well past the point where there can be any sort of debate about this stuff. If they want to start banning gun owners and banning guns - well then they're going to do it.
The people this really hurts are the people who consider gun ownership a "hobby". The reality here is that THEY are part of the problem. The intent behind the 2nd amendment is not hunting or target shooting (as gun rights defenders try to point out all the time). The intent behind the 2nd is to shoot down bad government actors when they get out of control. Government types of course - don't want to be shot down. So they continuously screw with the intent of the 2nd - AND THE STRUCTURE THAT SUPPORTED IT.
You see this is why I constantly bring up the militia. The militia was there to defend the country - and also to OPPOSE THE GOVERNMENT. Every man was supposed to be in it - or affiliated with it in some way - so that he was connected to his fellow citizens, his community - and his STATE - and NOT to the Federal government.
This is exactly why the militia system was broken up at the beginning of the "progressive era". The excuse was that it was "outmoded" and "didn't serve the needs of a growing country". Which is just progressive code for " was in opposition to our agenda so we got rid of it".
The problem here is that a good many 2A defenders - simply won't sit down and consider the context and the societal structure in which the 2A was supposed to work. They've bought into the liberal story of how things are supposed to be in this country - and therefore they have sold out their heritage - and that structure that would have defended their right to bear arms if the Feds decided to remove it.
Now the progressive leftist agenda has permeated thru society from the top to the bottom - and it has slowly but surely modified the structure of the Republic to suit it's own needs to aggregate power to the top.
2A supporters have been fighting a rear guard action for a long time - and slitting their own wrists at every opportunity they had by basically always giving in and defending yesterday's leftist progressive agenda item - while claiming they're "conservative" because they're in opposition to today's latest agenda item.
That's a losing battle - and always has been.
Looks like it's time to sell all the stuff I have on the books - start making shit off the books - and burying it.
