I guess they have successfully disarmed 100% of the criminals and terrorists, so they have the time to do this...
I don’t think thugs are as worried about criminals and terrorists as they are about decent people. Hard-working Americans are difficult to control, especially if they are armed.
Fortunately for those in power, I swore an oath to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic. So long as FedGov follows the Constitution, they have nothing to worry about from peaceful, law-abiding Americans, armed or not.
