I don't believe our elected officials as a whole are trying to undermine our republic. I do believe there are powerful people, however, that are and I believe they have some politicians in their pocket.
I absolutely believe there are those who will use any means necessary to do away with the 2nd amendment, because they realize that it is the one that ensures the others.
Imagine the outcry if they took a handful of nutjobs, continued to brainwash them, give them guns and dropped them off at schools and malls and turned them loose. With our current media there would be a public outcry to amend the 2nd amendment that these weasel politicians wouldn't ignore.
