gun control will never happen without dropping the duopoly
bill clinton, house and senate majority - no movement on gun control other than a ban on creation of new assault weapons - you could still buy and sell them and there was a sunset provision ending it in ten years, effectively meaning that as long as we had ten years worth of assault weapons already (we did), there would be no losing out to those who wanted them. obama, clear election mandate, tide of influence to democrats, an unassailable majority in house and senate - no movement on gun control. as in no vote on gun control from 2009 until 2011, the entire period of the filibuster proof majority. market it as an us versus them issue all you want, republicans and democrats are equally ineffective in passing meaningful gun control legislation. there are, however, parties that are all about gun control. try one. democrats did not take on the position of social liberalism until the 60's. trump is a bad person, you know republicans are against gun control, and democrats will not press for gun control in any meaningful fashion. history is reality.
