The gun control advocates sense that the time is right to make some big changes. The emotional tide is right. There is far too little discussion about the reason we have a Second Amendment to the Constitution.
The Founders had lived under the tyranny of England, and knew that citizens need protection against overstepping government.
The real motivation behind gun control is not safer schools, but tighter government control of every aspect of life. It is one thing to fear a rogue criminal with a gun. It is another to fear the authorities who can systematically limit your freedoms, and ultimately put you in prison--or worse.
