    Leftists have always been pro gun. There’s just not that many leftists. It’s the Democrats and neoliberals who think only Trump and his government should have guns.

      EU gun restrictions don’t come from the left?

      Not sorry to burst your bubble: Democrats are left by basic definitions of left & political classifications, historical record, and usual knowledge of political scientists & analysts.

      I’m not American, but I consider myself left wing, and I am pro gun but I am also pro gun control. I don’t think outright banning them is a solution but I also don’t think letting them out in the world unchecked is a good idea either.
