Margolis: You Can Tell Gun Control Orgs Don’t Want to Take Your Guns Because It’s Not on Their Websites

Thus [Second Amendment sanctuary supporters] are convinced that the rather mild bill before the House Judiciary Committee (it would marginally strengthen the existing state “red flag” law allowing temporary confiscation of firearms from a person accused of domestic violence) is merely a prelude to taking [their guns] away.

“Most of the gun control groups have that as an end goal,” Davis said.

Not according to their websites and public statements. Not one of the mainstream gun control groups — not the Brady Campaign, Everytown for Gun Safety, Giffords, Mom’s Demand Action — come anywhere close to proposing a ban on gun ownership.

Could it still be their secret long-range goal?

Probably not. With precious few exceptions, advocacy groups say what they mean. It’s the only way they can thrive. In this case it makes no difference. Even if total confiscation of firearms were anyone’s clandestine objective, no one will say so because they know it’s an unobtainable objective.
