Here's the thing. Much like Trump opponents, the arguments against are orthogonal to the arguments for.
The opposite side of "Guns kill people" is NOT "No, they don't." Instead, it's "Yes, but the minute we give them up the government will become a dictatorship." Now, you can say that argument is stupid (and it is,) but the way to convince the big Second Amendment folks is not to keep pointing out how senselessly dangerous guns are. That's a necessary evil in their minds. The trick is to convince them that their little AR-15 is NOT the deciding factor in whether Hitler, Jr. takes over America.
