is the right endangering our 2nd amendment

Could this hard nose pitch about losing control of our "gun rights" actually be endangering our chances to have weapons? run this by your mental puter: how many kids did you see hunting,or fishing last year? how many grandchildren do you have that don't hunt or fish? how many of your siblings children don't? how many in your family that no longer hunt or fish?
Well the fact is their are less and less hunters every year! you say so what people still target practice! hmmm most of those that do hunt! the point being we are losing our base support and have been for years!I'll bet that 50% of teens in maine have never fired a gun!
I'll bet that 75% of their parents think that only people that hunt should have weapons! I'll bet that in the end if we resist common sense and ignore the warning signs we will face a bill that could repeal the 22nd amendment!
you can dispute all you want ;but really think about the common sense of smaller clips(magazines for the drones) and gun show registration of all sales! no not pass downs of guns (although a receipt for new owner to stay with weapon in case they ever wanted to sell it to prove ownership)

A repeal of the Second Amendment followed by a nationwide gun confiscation are sorely needed.

I do not think one should worry about the 2nd Amendment being repealed in the US.

It would require a new amendment that would have to pass Congress, first...
