    counterpoint: the people who would enact this change are far beyond our reach as citizens so there is no way to target them with effective protests

    Literally go to the capitols instead. Or go to their houses. Some place that actually effects them rather than complete laymen.

      They won’t do that because they can and will get an armed response from three-letter agencies and LEOs. It’s the same reason these absolute clowns never protest where the weapons are made and shipped from, they’ll get beaten and shot, and they know it, so instead they harass everyone else.

      Seriously! Protesting has never accomplished anything ever and is totally useless unless it’s done explicitly for politicians that are totally receptive and eager to assist their constituents!
