What a fool! We fought against Britain in 1776 to get away from laws like that!

“We fought against Britain in 1776”

And when the National Firearms Act was first proposed in 1934 the civil unrest and protests were so severe Congress dropped it.

As again in 1968, the people rose up so strongly that the proposed gun control act was quietly dropped.

I think we are a long way from a 1776 response based on our response to other federal laws.
