I really think this article needs to be toned down a notch. Some Conservatives can accept it, sure, but saying that gun control if a leftist conspiracy to confiscate everyone's firearms is not going to help convert people to Conservatism.

:I completely disagree. This is what we see happening (although I would dispute using the word "conspiracy"). People on the left have the goal of totally eliminating guns from society. Sounds strange? Well, these are the same people who want to unite Europe [http://www.globalresearch.ca/the-president-of-france-wants-eurozone-members-to-transfer-their-sovereignty-to-a-united-states-of-europe/5463350][http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/eu/10918134/Italy-to-push-for-United-States-of-Europe-when-it-holds-the-EU-presidency.html] and eventually the world into one unified country and eliminate borders entirely from the planet.
:The only reason (in the U.S.) why liberals have not succeeded in banning guns is because guns are popular among regular people, and the Second Amendment prohibits them from enacting a complete ban. Fun fact: in 2008, the Supreme Court was '''one vote away''' from making it constitutional to enact complete handgun bans (see [[D.C. v. Heller]]). Some municipal bans on possessing handguns were only struck down in 2010 (see [[McDonald v. Chicago]]). The courts and the people oppose the liberals, so they have to proceed slowly. I'm sure the situation is similar in Europe, even though gun control is more popular. --[[User:1990'sguy|1990'sguy]] ([[User talk:1990'sguy|talk]]) 21:46, 22 April 2017 (EDT)
