Gun Control & RKBA

(27 posts)Drop the ideas of repealing PLCAA, wanting to track bullets, register all owners/firearms. Those are just a few that are non-starters for many gun owners, off the top of my head.
These are all ideas that punish or impose restrictions only on lawful citizens and have no real impact on criminal actions. As much as it may pain some in the Democratic Party to think of it, if you want to win elections at the national level, these ideas are contrary to that goal. Talk about polls, piblic opinion and "majority support" all you want, but when you get to the heart of the matter, very few voters cast their vote because a candidate supports such ideas. However, MILLIONS of voters will show up to vote against such ideas!
While those ideas play well to voters that will already cast their votes for democrats, the stink like a fish left in the sun for three days to the vast majority of gun owners, and people outside of places like San Francisco and New York City.
Just my .02...
