I gotta be the straight man for that comic line.

No, the purpose of all "gun control" laws is to disarm law-abiding citizens. That is because politicians are doing things to ordinary citizens for which they rightly fear that ordinary citizens might shoot them.

The "gun controllers" never miss an excuse to impose more restrictions. It is about "Public Safety". Theirs, not yours.
