<Aren't people bearing all the arms they need right now? If your previous information was correct, and folks basically want weapons suitable for hunting and protecting their homes, what's missing?

What am I missing?



You're missing the huge contingent of anti-gun groups who are trying their damndest to make ALL privately-owned weapons illegal. They are concentrating on handguns, which do not enjoy the broad support that hunting weapons do. As for hunting weapons, rest assured they have eventually banning rifles and shotguns in mind too, although they're way too smart to admit this in public. Their objective is to whittle away the right to own a gun little by little. Every action that can be taken to slow this process down is a good idea, and a little more support from the Administration.

Wondering why we should be concerned about promoting gun rights when we seem to have plenty of gun rights now is like asking why one should oppose white supremacist groups when modern black people have all the civil rights they need.

Another group.

Yet another group.

Here's one that started out as an anti-gun group, and got ambitious. Now they dabble in all the standard left-wing causes. This has not been an uncommon evolution with such groups.
