That is a bold statement, it would be tough to prove it. -- nm - crash davis 😺 Aug 29, 20:35 11
- i bet gen z polls higher on repealing the 2nd Amendment than even restoring Roe -- nm - hollywood big shot Aug 29, 20:36 10
  - I don't think I'd take that bet. I think that there are plenty that are deep into the gun nut culture in that generation. Maybe a declining number? -- nm - Qale Aug 29, 21:16 1
    - like the 50-year war on abortion, you wouldn’t even have to actually repeal so long as it motivated your base. FedSoc had to steal two SCOTUS seats to - hollywood big shot Aug 29, 21:27
  - For your initial statement to be true, you can't count the Dobbs voters. You have to have a greater increase in participation - crash davis 😺 Aug 29, 20:53 7
    - well first there would have to be a Dem candidate who makes repealing the 2nd Amendment a plank of his/her platform -- nm - hollywood big shot Aug 29, 21:00 6
      - Since that would be an absolutely ridiculous platform plank, I would actively oppose a fool who ran on that. -- nm - crash davis 😺 Aug 29, 21:06 4
        
        you didn't grow up terrorized in the classroom by school shootings from kindergarten to college -- nm - hollywood big shot Aug 29, 21:11 3
        
        No, but I grew up in an America where you currently need 38 states to repeal an amendment. Show me the 38. -- nm - crash davis 😺 Aug 29, 21:14 2
        
        that’s not the only way to repeal an amendment -- nm - hollywood big shot Aug 29, 21:17 1
        
        Dude, you can only repeal an amendment by ratifying another amendment. And all amendments end up in the hands of the states. -- nm - crash davis 😺 Aug 29, 21:25
      - I volunteer as tribute! -- nm - znufrii Aug 29, 21:05
