It's about your Constitutional Rights, exercising your Constitutional Rights, and the restrictions imposed on those rights. How do we effectively hamper only those that need restriction, rather than restricting everyone while only, maybe, occasionally, excepting need.

That's completely, exactly correct.
"How do we effectively hamper only those that need restriction"
Answer - obviously, we can't. Not a chance.
If a democrat president can trample on constitutional rights because he feels morally justified in doing so, then a Republican president can do the same thing. And the people calling for Biden to be able to ignore parts of the constitution they don't happen to like, won't like it one bit if Trump declared he was doing the same thing.

We MUST find a way. Problem is the effort to find a way isn't being made. SCOTUS even stated that there is no reason why 2A should not have the RIGHT as default, like other rights. Rather than being the only RIGHT which is hampered from outset.

Now you think morals and decency count?
Remember. If the shooter is:
•Black: He's a thug
•Immigrant: He's an illegal
•Muslim: He's a terrorist
•White: He's had a rough childhood & was bullied & girls never gave him a chance & he kept to himself & loved puppies & we must spend more on mental health.
ITS. THE. GUNS.

Like I said window dressing the rights been twisting the 2A argument for decades
It’s odd I have said own as many guns as you want and certain guns should be controlled and licensed accordingly
But the 2A extremist live in this fantasy that that’s an infringement of their rights and all roads lead to confiscation …
When was the last time you saw a Elmer Fudd at a 2 A rally ?
All I see are clowns in tactical gear with their tricked out weapons playing dress up. Mean while responsible gun owners like myself just sit back shaking their heads .. seeing 2A hijacked
Because that’s the image the extreme 2A groups want to present …. We are armed and dangerous
It’s pure selfishness . that’s how I see it .
