Well then, have an HONEST conversation. They say more restrictive laws must be passed. Wrong!!! The courts will strike them down.  Invasive background checks? Ditto. All comes back to the Constitution. We know that no Republican will run on the Second Amendment repeal.  And no leading candidate from the Democratic Party will openly advocate the repeal. And. Any change needs the support of the States. The Dems are week there, too.  What are we left with? Late night comedians and the Hollywood (who love their guns on the screen) preaching to the choir.
