It is the NRA which has politicized and exploited gun ownership and turned it into a highly partisan issue. There are no moderate or progressive voices in the NRA, only rightwing extremist types. They are the gun lobby but also the equivalent of the religious right in that all kinds of people, including liberal-minded ones, like to own and use guns, but according to the NRA guns are for far rightwing whites only.

Thgis is why the NRA needs to be opposed and disbanded. Some of its arguments are also very dishonest and unrealistic. And the 2nd amendment was not put in there to allow rightwing extremist groups to threaten the government or law enforcement. It was put in there for the people to be able to challenge tyrants, like Bush-Cheney have tried to become. Yet the only recent presdient the NRA has fought against is CLinton, a man of the people whgo was very inclusive and bi-partisan, the opposite of tyrannical.
