The other option is to continue to demand your "rights" under the 2A and
risk stronger laws, regulations and maybe eventually a new
interpretation of what the word "infringe" means.
It's called compromise. Dying art now-a-days.

The problem is that no amount of compromise legislation will prevent
crazies and criminals from getting guns. That means that incidents
will continue to happen from time to time, and each one will cause an
outburst of emotional frenzy, and that will create more calls for
legislation. If we start compromising with the gun haters we will end
up with a process of creeping rights erosion, just like has happened
with to the so called "war on drugs".
Valid points. It's going to happen anyway though, so I think it may be
better to be pro-active in the process rather than being totally rigid
about the subject.
When will it stop? That's the question. You seem to think it will take
only a few more minor compromises. I don't.
Ok. You have a right to your opinion.
