that the 2nd isn't now nor has it ever been about hunting?

This will eliminate the issue as a wedge issue. In 4 years the nutters will have forgotten and given up, just as they have forgotten and given up on fully automatic machine guns that were given a similiar treatment in the 1980's

Only someone completely out of touch and ignorant of history would believe such drivel. Fully autos have never been widely owned. There were minor changes in the 80's the real changes were in 1934 as they relate to fully automatic. Even pripor to that they were not widely owned. Today the #1 selling rifles in America are defined in HR1022 as 'assault weapons'. There are millions of these guns in private collections from sea to shining sea. The owners will not forget spending hundreds or thousands of dollars on them. All of the owners are eligible to vote or they couldn't legally buy them in the first place. Go look at 1994 and every year up to 2008. Keep kidding yourself with this type of nonsense thinking and watch our party loose what it has gained back.

Furthermore you should rethink your use of insults, it only goes to further dividing the party.
