6. I'm seeing more and more cracks in their wall

everyday.
I know you think this is bull shit but I know this too. There is such a thing as the law of attraction. When enough people want gun control things will move to make it happen. Today's killing of children has made a lot of people want gun restrictions. The momentum is building with each new gun tragedy. And the more guns there are the more gun tragedy there will be.
The return of gun control is inevitable and increased gun ownership is what will make it happen.
Mark my word.
