The really disgusting thing about politicians advancing ANY kind of gun control measures is that they know, they KNOW the laws already on the books are unconstitutional, despite US v. Miller (1939) et al, and yet, despite KNOWING the current laws are unconstitutional, they thumb their noses at the Constitution because. . . they can. And that is the even more disgusting thing about “gun control”: WE allow them to flout the fundamental law of the land. WE allow them to continue to violate their oaths of office.
Even worse, WE allow them to treat any constitutional restrictions on federal power as just paper restrictions to violate at will.
And that gives us state and local governments that play follow the leader into illegitimate exercises of power.
