A couple of simple questions regarding the word "banners" and RKBA [View all]

I personally dislike this word "banners", which gets thrown around a lot by the 2A hardliners.

Does anybody in this group support a total ban on firearms and firearm ownership?

Does anyone here support repealing or amending 2A? And if so, would you replace it with something more up to date?

How do you feel about firearm ownership? Starboard Tack Aug 2014 #9

I wouldn't have a big problem with a fairly strict ban on most guns. stone space Aug 2014 #10
