That's because the whole "disarmn the criminals" (ex-cons used to have their 2nd Amendment rights restored) was really just a ploy to weaken everyone's rights in order to take them away.
How hard a guess would it have been to figure out that the habitual criminal wouldn't obey the lawy and get his hands on guns, while the guy who wants to go straight (or who just made a mistake) would stay away?
And gee, the disarming wasn't just of those who'd used guns in committing their crime, or of violent offenders in general, but of all ex-cons. What's the reasoning behind that?
And since it was obviously going to be a problem to keep guns out of habitual criminals' hands, that meant there were going to have to be ever more draconian measures leveled against the average citizen.
To the point where the only ones who have guns are the habitual criminals.
Now I may have exaggerated the planning behind this, but surely the path forward could have been rather easily seen.
But the public buys it all, even today, hook, line and sinker, and so we have to pay the price for our collective stupidity.
Look to what's being done to the hated and despised to see where your own rights are being eroded.
A winner every single time for the self-styled elites who want to own you: "When they came for...., I did nothing, for I was not..."
America -- a great idea, didn't last.

Ya think? Of course it is. Anything that infringes upon our personal and property rights is un-Constitutional. That’s why the LibTards have worked so hard for 50 yers to capture the education system, the courts, the media, etc.
They’re evil. And they’re patient.
