Will the Democrats simply pass a law banning and confiscating all guns? No.
But what WILL they do?
The same thing they've been doing for years already.
When some mass shooting or terrorist attack happens, they will announce that clearly we need "just a little more" regulation. They might even call it "common sense" restrictions. And they'll put in place a minor law or two, that restricts a few more law-abiding people.
And then when that has no effect, and some other horrific murder happens, they will announce, "Well, looks like we need to have just a few more common-sense restrictions." And the restrictions they put in place, again only go a little farther that what they did before. Doesn't seem like much.
They are doing this right now, of course. They have restricted just a few more gun sales to law-abiding people. And in the past they have restricted "just a few" types of guns from those law-abiding people. Doesn't seem like much.
And so they keep advancing just a few bits at a time. No one step ever seems like much, and indeed it isn't. But the gradual creep never stops.
And since none of the things the Democrats do ever work, never having the slightest effect on the spectacular murders they claim to oppose, there is always another horrific crime to let them put a few more restrictions in place.
Where does it stop?
Well, where the spectacular murders stop.
But the murders never stop, since the Democrats' schemes always fail. Without exception. Their constant efforts to put restrictions on law-abiding people, never have the slightest effect on people who don't obey laws - the spectacular murderers, mass shooters, and jihadis.
It's a pretty good racket for the Democrats. They can go on putting more and more restrictions on law-abiding people, always just a few at a time, secure in the knowledge that people will accept them after the shock of the latest mass shooting. And also knowing that in a few months or years they will be able to put more restrictions on them, after the next shooting their restrictions didn't prevent.
What DOES actually reduce or prevent mass shootings? I've already pointed them out:
1.) A complete ban on all civilian-owned guns, byt criminals and law-abiding alike, plus the massive police state needed to go house to house confiscating them, and a standing army of police to keep raiding houses month after month without end, checking for illegally imported or homemade guns. Yes, this WOULD effectively reduce mass shootings, if no law-abiding people had guns at all and even criminals had a very difficult time finding one due to the universal scarcity and constant police surveillance and searches.
2.) Repealing all so-called "gun control" laws, and letting all law-abiding adults own and carry guns if they want to. Most still won't bother carrying. But criminals planning anything from a mugging to a murder, would then know there was probably a few armed people in the crowd. There wouldn't be much chance for them to rack up the huge body counts they presently can before the police finally show up, or even getting away with that old lady's purse.
No other schemes have ever been shown to actually work, in reducing mass shootings and other horrific crimes.
Which scheme do you think is the goal of the Democrat who keep making just a few more regulations at a time? Not the second one, clearly.
Will the Democrats simply pass a law banning and confiscating all guns?
No.
Not until that's just a very small advance over the regulations they put in place after the previous mass murder.
