Guns are for people whose job it is to kill professionally, such as soldiers and hunters. Not sure why civilians desperately wanting to own a gun is something that needs to be tolerated. There are other ways Democrats can win back the house that don't involve capitulating to crazy people.
I honestly wouldn't mind if firearms were banned entirely, but the biggest problem category is pistols, and until DC v. Heller gets overturned, doing anything about pistols is basically impossible.

Because of that, their gun control agenda currently IS capitulating to crazy people. Crazy people that get their information about how easy it is to get an AK-47 from Ice Cube lyrics, that think this country's massive gun death toll has anything to do with mentally unstable spree shooters, and that get duped by made-up political terms like "assault weapon."

Yes, there are people in this country that fetishize guns to absolutely stupid extents, but pissing them off is stupid unless it's going to solve an actual problem.
