70. You either don't understand the anti-gun movement
Or you are part of it, continuing the whitewash.

The goal is never "sane" regulation for safety. The goal is to ban guns, period.

Perfect example: Chicago post-McDonald decision. They legalized guns in the city, and enacted regulations that amounted to a de-facto gun ban.

Same for Washington DC after Heller.

Both cities have been smacked down the the courts a few times for their obvious attempt at an undercover gun ban.

It is plainly obvious: They want to ban guns regardless of any issues of constitutionality and law.

If they want regulation of private gun sales, then their goal is the elimination of private gun sales, and regulation is only a step.
