I also remember the Symbionese Liberation Army and their trademark cyanide bullets, along with the "Zebra" shootings in the city I would later call home for 23 years.

So I can recall a time when a very different group of people advocated a "Second Amendment solution" to what they saw as the nation's problems from the group advocating the same "solution" now - and as such, I would warn the left: Don't wish too hard for gun control. You might get it.

Sounds like a warning about NOT wishing for it. The Black Panthers, the SLA and the Zebra did not fare so well with their violent approach. David Hilliard said "the guns were our nemesis."
