It’s not “just” a question of taking them away.
The question is also “who winds up with them?” Because, someone—whether in tyrannical authority, or merely criminal, will.
Gun-grabbers think that either they will wind up controlling weaponry, or forces allied and controlled by them will.
Of course there are some silly uni-sexers who think that all weapons will evaporate and we’ll all eat vegetables, or in a pinch, synthesized proteins. But they are shock-troop sheep, not the drivers of the anti-gun cabal.
“shock-troop sheep”
I like that, it fits those wimps perfectly.
