It’s not the only right I worry about,
but if someone wants to disarm people in general, I think why.

Shamelessly stolen..
Ok, I'll play..how are you or anybody you know going to be 'disarmed'? Under what political landscape will this happen? Who will do it, who will pay for it?
There are more firearms that are more accessible today than any time in the recent past. Certainly since the AWB ended. Even with a DEM majority in all of the Fed government, another AWB isn't in the cards, regardless of ;hot mike' sound bites.
Gunbroker.com..search 'AR-15'..over 10,000 ads. Saame for 'Glock', Ruger, Sig Sauer...etc...
Yup, 'glass more than half full' for me in a VERY blue state. I want for nothing, have never had any problem finding and buying what I or my sons want. 30 guns between the 3 of us.
Even gun laws in blue states are different. Sure we can buy some guns in CA, not as many as in CO. We're restricted to guns CA allows on the state Roster, because CA says they are "safe" to own.
Suppose CA, CO, CT...said car/truck buyers could only purchase vehicles on their "state roster" that they determined to be "safe and fuel efficient". Cars/trucks are lethal weapons just like guns, will residents accept it if their state says it. I think there will be a lot of push back.
First, isn't going to happen and no, a car or truck ISN'T
just like a gun. I understand the issue with CA and guns. What I get tired of is the 'gun grabber', comin' for yer guns', 'cold dead fingers' type stuff that only riles up the non pro gun side. Add to it, the HUGE number of gun deaths, majority at the hand of people who legally obtained their guns...
Both are still turds.
I find this astonishing. trump is a dangerous criminal, a traitor who has tried to overturn a free and fair election. AND has created an entire class of people, many in congress, who STILL spout his lies and sedition. PLUS he stole highly classified documents, has a buddy-buddy relationship with our main enemy..And most likely has shared info with putin that is damaging our NATIONAL SECURITY RIGHT NOW....trump and his ilk are DANGEROUS to US democracy...no comparison to Newsom, none
Ya know, you can stamp your feet and not vote, which means nothing, and if you do, no fair complaining when the next POTUS says your kid has to say the lord's prayer each morning at his public school..Or your favorite book is burned, or your Trans or gay neighbor is arrested and sent to a 're-education camp. Or your pregnant relative, after learning their 'in womb' child is horribly deformed, will not survive, and they, with Doc, are arrested because they terminated the pregnancy. Or...after a fair election that the GOPathetic clearly didn't win, is overturned in the 'legislature'.....amazing.
But by god, we can sure buy lots of guns...astonishing.
