Well, who is “they”?

The majority of activist organizations arguing for restrictions absolutely have an end-goal of banning all guns.

Claiming “we just want common sense gun laws” is a far larger bad-faith distortion of the truth than “they wanna take all your guns”.

Gun laws proposed by these organizations only go one way: more restrictive.

Discussions on the internet are tons of fun and extremely useful when we just ascribe whatever secret end goal on to organizations that we want. May I try? Actually, the majority of activist organizations are fronts for gun manufacturers to create a fear of them being regulated away to help push a buy-now mentality. claiming otherwise is bad faith distortion of reality!

Nobody (other than you, with that intentionally ridiculous claim) is ascribing a secret end goal; their goals are quite plainly articulated.

I think you followed the thread wrong. I was referring to sending money to groups trying to ban all guns.
