I don't know if anyone else lives in my state (Connecticut) or lives close enough to know how a lot of people are here, but even before Newtown we had the strictest gun laws in the country. And after this happened, the pro-gun control argument became super emotionally charged. I know that guns (pictures, symbols, even mentionings) were even banned from a lot of schools, and most conservatives couldn't start a conversation about their favorite rifle without giving a speech to make sure everyone listening wouldn't be offended.
So yeah, biggest troll of our time.

What people like to forget is that the second amendment is there so that the civilian population can overthrow a tyrannical government if need be. Of course it a bit outdated, but once you disarm the civilian population nothing is stopping the government from seizing full control. Hitler did it before the mass genocides. And who could call the US out on it? Really, who? One of the strongest, and most funded military. It would be the most hypocritical thing the world has ever seen.
