"
You describing the liberal’s hysterical DEMANDS to confiscate ALL private fire arms in the US?"
Look behind those liberals at who is funding their efforts and sponsoring their propaganda. All in political speech now are "liberals" both in social life and socialism: factions, each trying to get larger portions of the pile of debt, socialist locals claiming to be conservative as much as their more visible socialist peers.
Were you around any spoiled rotten kids while growing up? They start trouble and desire impulsive reactions. Take a look at Vaclav Havel and nonpolitical politics (Czech).
The common man doesn't react as desired by political folks and become a target for the corrupt. He only tightens up against frivolous personal spending and begins to work more for himself while refusing to provide the feedback and funding demanded by bipartisan, socialist troublemakers.

Demand that the VAWA be repealed or no vote! Start there.
So you're a real engineer. I sincerely respect that. Are you in the private sector? I would be truly grateful, if you'd spare some time for needed lowtech efforts for freedom. Links to only a few efforts of individuals and small groups follow. There are many more out there.

Why feed the sturgeons of debt with much frivolous personal spending? The commie recipients of the pile of debt in every locale are heavily invested in all local energy utilities and other commodities. It only gives them the money and time to rule over us in politics. As for bonds, who cares? Those are losers in the near future, and we all know it.
