Well, many of us who need to jump through the hoops still do so. It takes time and costs money. But it's a Constitutional right.(It was recently demonstrated to be much easier for a Blood member who was released from prison for murder early to buy a gun than it is for legal owners.)
What are they afraid of? That non-felon, non-criminal minority citizens will find it easier and cheaper buy guns? How is that a bad thing?

It is a bad thing for them, because they worship the State and demand it have unlimited power. The Second Amendment is a clear and obvious limit on government power.
They hate it with a passion.
They also hate it because many have *chosen* to be unarmed. They want to make sure *everyone else* must be unarmed, so they never have to learn to use arms. (yes, they are that ignorant)
