since when do democrats care about what the bill of rights say? or the constitution for that matter?
They want they take.
They pass a law that says black is white and white is black.
It is about political power.
Individual rights such as gun ownership or freedom of association are a threat to the democrats so they attack every chance they get.
If this were europe, these are the types that get line up an shot at every revolution. So they have a politician "echo memory" to cause their fear of citizens. Not that we have ever needed it in the USA.
There's also the 'fact' that they're just smarter and know better than us 'common folk'. ;)
