Depite the best efforts of the NRA to create them, gun grabbers don't exist.


If anti 2nd Amendment types call us "gun nuts" or "gun huggers" then we can call them gun grabbers....

False. Gun grabbers do actually exist. Witness the actual gun grab after Katrina, and a lot of the regulations in some cities before Miller and other court cases forced change.

Also all sorts of calls to ban guns from
"Time to ban all guns. Just get them off the street."
Message 30113464

to wide spread calls for more mild gun grabs for example banning "assault weapons" that are arbitrarily and mostly cosmetically defined, to earlier calls to ban "Saturday night specials".

So then why all this focus on banning certain weapons or magazines?

Background checks only work for your first gun after that - it's sort of silly - I already have a gun.
