Would be funny if this is how gun control becomes a thing in America. A bunch of greedy landlords unable to overcharged people for rent because the neighbourhood is deemed unsafe start lobbying the government to get guns under control because it's affecting their bottom dollar.
Is it that much different from how fun control became a thing in California?
The "wrong" people have to start enjoying guns is all
Join the SRA! (Socialist Rifle Association). We are the wrong people! We either arm the vanguard (not actually a goal) or we get more common sense gun laws implemented. It's a win win.
In more serious terms, think of it as an organization where you can learn responsible gun ownership without being surrounded by maga hats. You don't need to consider yourself a socialist to join. Though there is a basic vetting process to keep the maga hats out.
That has some TST vibes.
Similar. Main difference being the SRA actually believes in the thing their org is built on.
