It is only a matter of politics, popular support and lobby.

One thing that may hurt gun owners more than anything is if something happens to the 2nd Amendment. It can happen, so I think it's in every gun owners interest to protect it by discussing how it should be applied to a modern society, and also showing some flexibility (which should, of course, be shown by both sides). You can't protect the 2nd Amendment by stubbornly clinging on to it as an eternal truth, because it isn't.

What really hurts this debate is that both parties see their opponents as rabid, hard-headed ideologists, and act accordingly. It's not really a creative environment.
