That's just it though, gun rights never have majority support.
Either people dont have guns, so they don't care and/or get scared into it by the idea of criminals getting guns... Or the brain dead gun owners who support this stuff...
Or worse yet, conservatives who would normally support 2A issues... But sit out elections all together because the Republican ticket isn't conservative enough or they don't like something about the candidate. I'm certain that's what dis us in up here.
There's going to be a big Democratic turn out for 2016, I hope not to see any antigun legislation come up for a vote until mid terms.
That may be, but I am anticipating a conservative shift in 2016. Many people are really sick of what they've been seeing, even from their own parties. Many folks that voted for I-594 in WA are coming out now saying they didn't realize what they were voting for (partially due to there being a competing ballot measure that caused more confusion). On a national level, I think the Dems are going to be fighting an uphill battle against a very strong set of conservative candidates. On a state level, I don't know for sure, but I'm hoping folks are waking up and may even be willing to vote differently this time. They may not care about gun issues, but there are other things they're passing (such as trying to take away our kicker refund in OR) that is pissing a lot of people off.
