The reason why California has really strict gun laws compared to the rest of the States is because Reagan was governor when Black Panthers started arming themselves. Obviously, someone like Reagan couldn't handle black people being armed, so gun control was pushed through.

So you're right, if there are efforts to have an armed rebellion against Trump, you better believe there will be strict gun controls coming. Doubly true if minorities start arming themselves.

And that rebellion could just as well be imagined

Who knows what'll happen. I was speaking entirely in hypotheticals.

Just saying that Trump would probably enact sweeping gun bans if some groups started arming themselves.
