The typically proposed answer is to make possession illegal. Therefore, if you get found with a gun not only does it get confiscated but you go to prison and lose your right to vote.

That would create the mother of all unintended consequences. Might as well put the weapon to its constitutionally-intended use at that point, rather than go to prison. And they think it’s hard to find people willing to be cops now?

“That would create the mother of all unintended consequences. “

I disagree. I think that consequence is intended. Like Biden said, “If you’re gonna fight the government you need some F-15’s and nuclear bombs.” I think there is an element on the Left that fanaticizes about killing off “all the Republicans*” Like most liberals, those people don’t know how things work. There’s just this place in their mind that equates civil war with utopia afterwards. I’m reminded of the original movie “Fahrenheit 451” where everybody wore white pajamas and rode around on monorails.

*Liberals conflate Republicans with conservatives because all those “sophisticated” liberals don’t have a refined view of which is what.
