I can explain this. Seen this seeming contradiction all my life.
Talk about Gun Control in vague terms and people think” well yeah, there should be something on the books to keep guns out of the hands of the crazy and the criminal”
Democrats then start taking about specifics gun control legislation and people see what they actually mean by “gun Control” that they are going to take guns from the law abiding and say “this is utterly nuts”.

Then those same politicians propose legislation ‘that the majority wants” and then their shocked at the opposition to them
