I am not Ok with that. If it ever is attempted they will get none of mine.
As I've posted many times, I'd rather try better regulation of the process, screening and enforcement, as opposed to restrictions and bans.
But, the NRA, its owned politicians, and gun enthusiast extremists, like you, aren't rational or strategic. Rather than consider even such administrative regulations to increase public safety, you instead resist any change whatsoever in order to maximize profits (NRA) and maintain your personal gratification/convenience - using ignorant fear-based arguments and false rhetoric.
So, while it's not my preference, it won't bother me if the feared "slippery slope!!!" is avoided and the law jumps straight to restricting and banning some types of firearms. That too would be wholly in line with a well-regulated right to bear arms, per the Second Amendment. At this point, I'd be okay with that too.
