but it’s a straightforward fact that the individualized right to own guns didn’t even really exist until 2008 and the near complete inability to pass any gun laws didn’t exist until 2010.

Huh... Then I wonder how my family had their guns in the 80's in one of the most restrictive states.

Man I must be misremembering half of my gun collection that's older than I am that were passed down to me...

I totally don't have the purchase documents for most of them either... some 1970's in there too...

Holy shit the amount of historical retconning you'd have to do in your head to make up the shit you just did.
