When the campaign season fired up, Democrats were convinced that gun control was not only going to be a huge issue but a winning one for them. Candidates laid out their anti-Second Amendment credentials and they started pushing for things like universal background checks and assault weapon bans.
Uvalde, in theory, should have sealed the deal.
However, what happened in Texas turned out to have just as much, if not more to do with school security than firearm laws, and the public has, for the most part, moved onto more pressing issues.
This is especially true after Bruen. That decision pretty much laid the groundwork for dismantling gun control and everyone knows it, so running on new rules isn’t likely to be a winning strategy. Even if you pass them, what are the odds they’ll hold up?
And if you had any doubt that’s true, then maybe the fact that gun rights are looking to gain ground in Illinois should remove those doubts.

Have heard of the wall penetrating radar. Any way to shield/spoof this?
After legal marijuana, free abortions, free junk healthcare and gender transition guides what more do the Democrats have to GOTV.
Absolutely correct. Here is what LBJ said when he signed the 1968 Gun Control act into law..
“Today we begin to disarm the criminal and the careless and the insane. All of our people who are deeply concerned in this country about law and order should hail this day.”-— Lyndon Johnson signing the 1968 gun control act into law.
So, how did that work out for you America? Is crime down? And almost every mass shooter since 1984 should have been certified insane and locked up before they committed the crimes. Problem is the mental institutions were closed down, and the patients dumped on the streets in the 1970s.
“When my concealed carry license…”
The existence of a need for a license or registration is a clear infringement. When they are done away with, freedom will result.
There is a demshevik who’s running for office in Montgomery AL who labels his gun confiscation plans as “common sense public safety measures”.
Uvalde proved that the Cowards of Broward weren’t an anomaly, and that you can’t count on police to protect you. So you need to be prepared to protect yourself.
Asymmetrical warfare is the answer. If you stand up to armor with air support with just your hunting or sporting gun, the best you can hope for is to be a martyr.
“Your guns are pop-guns compared to what they have in the wings getting ready to come at you.”
With what army?
Guns rights groups and people like me should point out to the anti-gunners the hundreds of gun deaths by ILLEGAL ALIENS. I do.
