I disagree with what MarkA and rickyrick have said. I mean, is that the ideal world I’d like to live in? Sure. Is that an approach that is going to get us results? Well, we’ve got 20 years of history to look at. Has it worked yet?
If I get a democratically approved 51% vote to violate your wife, is the proper response to file suit and allow me to violate your wife until 10 years in the future when the Court MAY decide that’s an unconstitutional law?
The state of Virginia is talking about taking lawfully owned property from peaceable citizens because of things they might hypothetically do, despite decades of evidence to the contrary in some cases. That doesn’t deserve a TFL-approved response in my view. We’re now just left debating whether the TFL-sanctioned view is the practical response, violations aside.
This isn’t going to be solved by the legal system. It is going to be solved by citizens standing up for what they believe in. The citizens of Virginia are well within their rights to resort to civil disobedience to protest unjust laws. The problem is, with the 2A being the right at stake, it is very easy for that to blow up in your face and set your cause back - false flag, random idiots, etc.

To further extrapolate, here is a leftist group with a confirmed history of violence who is going to be marching in support of the 2A:
