There are four gun violence crises plaguing the US that other industrialized nations do not experience. Consequently, our peers are happier and because they are happier they have less violence. We have a gang violence issue, which is not as bad as it was, but we’re leading the league so to speak. We have terroristic attacks against civilian populations by mass shooters. These are the “demonized poster children” as you describe it. They’re not tolerated in other countries beyond sporadic incidents. We have domestic violence, mostly with men shooting their family members. Not happening in our peer countries. And we have a suicides gun crisis. Whether accidental or not, gun safety legislation could save countless lives and help communities be safer, which is the intent of the 2A. We can take your post-modern interpretation of 2A to the Cloak Room, in addition to your pit-bull arguments for the AR-15 and use of “air quotes”.
