It's not going to happen. Democrats have once again overplayed their hand and will go into the midterms as the party who wants to repeal the 2A.

I'm fine with picking a one age for someone to vote, buy a gun, get an abortion, fight in a war, pick their gender, and buy health insurance. Agree?

It's a completely legitimate question. Why have different definitions for an adult? Why have people we don't trust to not eat laundry detergent determine their gender? Why have someone able to carry a rifle on the battlefield, but not in the woods back home?

Thanks for the response. it appears that Trump is calling for all firearms, or at least "long guns" to be unavailable to those under 21 for purchase.

Under current federal law, licensed firearm dealers cannot sell handguns to people under 21 and cannot sell long guns to people under 18, according to the Giffords Law Center, which tracks gun laws and advocates for more restrictions. Some states already impose laws with tighter minimum age requirements.

The National Rifle Association, which endorsed Trump in the 2016 presidential election, quickly rejected any talk of raising the age for buying long guns to 21.

“Legislative proposals that prevent law-abiding adults aged 18-20 years old from acquiring rifles and shotguns effectively prohibits them for purchasing any firearm, thus depriving them of their constitutional right to self-protection,” the NRA said in a statement.

The cognitive dissonance associated with making that choice is debilitating for some.

Nope. If you agree that raising the current age limit is good, choose A. If you disagree, choose B.

The other things you mentioned aren't relevant. If you think there is something else you think would be better, then choose B, because that means you disagree with just raising the current age limit, as is being discussed.

We'll see what he signs into law. The anti-gun nuts are frothy right now, so pols are liable to spew idiotic sound bites to appease the dimwitted who look at everything but the fetid society that many of these dung heaps celebrate.
