Historically, most active defenders of the 2nd amendment tended to be on the right, the "Obama is going to take your guns" crowd. Now a lot of people all across the political spectrum are seeing that the police may not be coming to protect them at all (thanks to progressive local governments that will tolerate a high degree of violence, as long as they sympathize with those being violent). Even the most liberal people are flocking to buy guns for self protection.
What effect is this going to have on future attempts to erode the 2nd amendment?
Myself, I'm not all that optimistic, since people have very short memories. I think this is just a temporary reprieve and we'll go back to the usual "guns are evil" the moment a democrat is in the White House.
