Fred, do you realize that the Confederate Flag has not been banned or even regulated anywhere in the USA. That would be an unequivocal violation of the First Amendment. All that has happened is that some statehouses have voluntarily (and commendably) chosen not to fly the flag along with the American Flag and their state flags (although some of those state flags still have the Confederate Flag incorporated within their design).

If your cartoon was actually a representation of the extent of gun control advocacy, congratulations, you can declare victory and go home. Firearms are already prohibited or highly restricted in most statehouses and government buildings, all without much objection from firearm owners.

However, if your intent is to "ban" or banish the NRA, from statehouses or the general public, you'll need to repeal both the First and Second Amendments. Good luck with that...
