Yes, I know they mean "The current gun laws are enough; we don't need any more," and that they adopt this stance to remain "politically viable" and to be able to claim the "moderate middle ground" in a nation dominated by a left-wing, collectivist, hoplophobe press and political class (not that you'd know it from the way the NRA — and gun owners in general — are demonized in said press.)

But I don't mind being called an extremist (my defense being the same as Barry Goldwater's.)

In fact, all existing gun control laws are unconstitutional, since the federal Constitution as amended bars the federal government (and, through the 14th Amendment, any state government), from "infringing" in any way the right of the people to keep and bear — which means to carry around, especially in government buildings — any weapon which could prove of military ("militia") usefulness, including belt-fed machine guns, sawed-off shotguns, and shoulder-launched, heat-seeking missiles.
