I say go for it...

All of this whining about gun control from the left is just that — whining. If they really want to change things, launch a repeal effort. It’s the only thing that they can do to get rid of guns.

Of course, there’s a few flies in that ointment.

They’ll need 2/3 of Congress to pass it, followed by 3/4 of the states to ratify. That’ll take probably about 10 years or so, IF they can get the votes (which is highly unlikely). But for the sake of argument, let’s say they get it through. There’s 300 million firearms in circulation here. It’ll take another 50-100 years to get rid of those, but that doesn’t count the smuggling that will take place to replace those that are lost.

But in the end, if they want to get rid of guns, all the whining in the world won’t change anything. They are more than welcome to take the steps that will ban them — repeal.

Good luck with that...

If the Commies did actually get the Second Amendment repealed the trafficking in firearms across the Mexican border would dwarf the current drug traffic. Then, again, maybe the Dems would then build the wall.
