Let me first say that I like guns, have a few, and believe in the
meaning of the Second Amendment. I used to be a member of the NRA,
until I was repulsed by its political dishonesty.

That said, my long term thinking on the future oft he Second Amendment
and what it protects, is bleak.

The reason is not what the current administration is going to do in
the aftermath of the latest events, but on what happens to gun
ownership.

The number of guns is not going down, but the number of gun owners
will go down for a few reasons. One is that young people do not get
nearly as much exposure to their parents guns, so they are not as
interested. Another is that there is fewer and fewer gun ranges. There
are many more alternative ways to have fun that did not exist 40 years
ago. At some point the interest in guns will wane.

Even now, "gun advocates" are, mostly, at least middle aged.

Not true. More and more of the young are buying guns. We have more
guns ..new guns in new peoples hands today..than at any time in our
history.

So, people will lose interest in guns, gun ownership will concentrate,
and then finally the "gun lobby" will not be as numerous. The guns wil
be seen as menace by more people and liked by fewer people. So,
eventually the Second Amendment will be repealed and a few decades
later, not much gun ownership will remain or be permitted.

Sorry..but the Second American Revolution will happen before long and
most of the Progressive/Liberal/Leftwinger/Marxist/Socialist types
will be murdered by their neighbors and associates. Those that dont
flee the carnage before being murdered.

The methodology of the left has always been:

1. Lie
2. Repeat the lie as many times as possible
3. Have as many people repeat the lie as often as possible
4. Eventually, the uninformed believe the lie
5. The lie will then be made into some form oflaw
6. Then everyone must conform to the lie
