The article made a very good point, that 2A supporters need to capitalize upon:
We have (according to the article) over 18 MILLION more guns in circulation now...but no more mass shootings? I'll have to dig, but how about the overall gun-crime rate? Certainly not up by tens-of-millions...if at all. THIS, needs to be a focal argument for 2A support. Like...now.
More guns do NOT equal more shootings.
An armed society is a polite society - whether it wants to be, or not.
This tweet was in response to more COVID lockdowns, but it applies here as well. Actually, it applies...just about everywhere in life.
Scott W. Atlas would be our President's top COVID response advisor, and the tweet was in direct response to the new set of Michigan, and Chicago, and other, lockdown rules. But as I said...we can absolutely apply it here as well. Call, write, or email your representative. NOW. Conservatives did outstandingly well down-ballot this election - lets put it to good use.

Yup, apparently they'll only go with the pollsters that polled the last two Presidential General elections, when they want to see public opinions on gun control.

Nor the constitution in general, nor common sense, nor the 2nd amendment in particular, nor common sense, nor people's right to self defense, nor common sense...................... uhuhh, did I mention they don't care about common sense?
You made a funny out of the truth.

I think, I hope, they will back off gun control. There was no "Blue Wave" they actually lost in the house coming close to having no majority. With the 2022 in sight and gun control a loser I think they will stay away worrying about losing the majority. Something that happened last time they tried to force gun control on the public and we are a lot stronger now.
