It is all from one perspective. I guarantee many people would love one of the theories against guns enacted.If Clinton gets elected and the D's win the senate, then Clinton is going to nominate a far left ideolog! This will be a person who believes in a total ban on guns. The left wing will have a 5 vote majority and they will not honor to the 2nd amendment.
What could happen:
(1) Arm Argument: There could be a total ban on handguns as the argument goes the framers meant rifles (arms) not handguns.
(2) Mental efficiency license: All gun owners/user must undergo an annual mental exam. It could be nearly impossible to pass and could be cost thousands of dollars.
(3) Armed militia argument: Total ban on private ownership. The second amendment was only for a government militia. Meaning the police, military or national guard.
Yes the 2nd amendment will look much different if Clinton gets elected!
and that would be a bad thing, why?
Frankly, you might think it's a great idea when people who think they are The Joker can go out and buy guns, but the rest of us, not so much.
So the worst thing that could happen is that we would be back to the situation we had before 2008 and the Heller attrocity, where gun laws are matters of state and local regulation.
Just not seeing that as a bad thing, really.
I am more of a centralist. I think both sides are wrong.
