Well, remember that most Americans are truly ignorant of rights, politics, and pesky things like the Constitution. They take what they read in the paper, online, or hear from the news at face value. When they’ve been told over and over that it’s a militia thing, they’re going to believe it.
It’s part of why I’m an activist. I’ve seen it first hand many times that when you sit with someone and show them the facts about the 2nd amendment, they can pierce through the haze they’ve been fed for so long.
We’ve got a long way to go. But honestly I feel we’re making a lot of progress.
