I have been reluctant to acknowledge the only rational reason for gun control -- "People Control".
"Common Sense", "Red Flag", "Preventing Gun Violence" are all no more than feel-good fig leaves to fool us and the naive.
I can't remember the number of times I have gotten into discussions about the various gambits and went no further than why they made no sense.
I really appreciate how well the illustration in today's 2021 Joke of the Day with the mouse and the frog captures the basic issue: https://www.65grendel.com/forum/showthre...post296494
No need to enumerate the number of times weapon control and confiscation was the first step in the slide to totalitarian rule and to genocide.
