A major portion of vocal 2A advocates cite the need to own guns in order to protect against government overreach. The argument being made is that the government is now overreaching but the 2A advocates aren't actually using their guns to protect against it.

I mean, a major portion of vocal 2A advocates voted for the government overreach, or else don't actually care either way as long as the government doesn't touch their guns.

But they'll still lecture you should you ever dare question the utility and necessity of it. They'll still claim their guns are the only thing holding America back from tyranny even as ICE and the police pick them off like ducks.
