@giujohn,
your use of "2nd amendment protection" is an example of how people of limited intellect can be sucked in by their spokespeople and the NRA. Hows it like being inna pocket of an entire industry??
2nd A has a vital place. The uniform Firearms act of 1935 still stands nd the NRA douche bags seem to NOT foster any challenges since that may open exceptions to control even deeper than the control of dangerous qeapons.
I have many guns and feel personally responsible that noone other than those I invite, cancontact them or fire them. The gun "brandishers" merely repeat their silly mantra of unrestricted gun ownership and use and call that protection .
They dont insure that they have a similr sense of responsibility. The NRA (when I was a member years ago), posted about gun safety, sportsman use, safety etc. Theyve just overboarded that in fvor of the GOP based mantra of that 2nd amendment "protection" (Their extreme paranoia shows like some crazed hillbilly militia member).
As I said many times, itll be generational but sooner or later there WILL be defined and reasonable limitations of ownership by those who ould do harm nd , I think, that the right of ownership will have an accompanied duties of use, that dont exist in a real fashion today
