    I mean it is the gun lobby who called it “the fight of our lives”…

    Also, farms can own ten guns according to the limit.

      Is English a second language for you?

      They did not say “this is a fight for our lives” they said “this is the fight of our lives”, for vs of do you see?

      It reads as “This political fight is likely to be the most significant fight — in the context of gun regulation — that we will participate in during our time alive”.

      It’s meladramatic, but that’s part of politics and rhetoric. You have to rile people up.
