Does that mean that you're correct and they don't exist? Hell no.

But since you brought it up...
Thanks for helping to prove my point. Not one of those articles is from a prominent, currently-serving Democratic politician (or any Democratic politician of any stripe). Insignificant pundits spewing shit on op-ed pieces is a completely different animal than politicians sponsoring legislation. Even a MAGAMoron should be able to recognize the difference.

Indeed, Karen Bass's positions on gun control are mainstream and supported by a majority of Americans and are within the scope of the 2nd Amendment. Specifically, she wants to ban large high capacity magazines, repeal "stand your ground" laws and improve background checks.

In summary, your OP is some faux outrage wingnut bullshit that you chose to parrot here as if it's something profound, interesting or relevant. It's not. If I were you, I would be resentful and embarrassed about being so easily manipulated by whatever garbage news sources you frequent.

You didn't specify "currently serving" in your post, but thanks for changing the rules while simultaneously ducking the fact that there are plenty of Dems who'd like to dump the 2nd Amendment.

When I say prominent Democrat, I mean a Democratic politician with significant sway on the legislative process. I'm not talking about op-ed writers for The Nation. Jeez. Are you really that dimwitted?

Give me the name of some influential national Democratic politicians who want to dump the 2nd Amendment. Biden, the leader of the party, said emphatically that he, a gun owner himself, doesn't believe in that. More fake news from you.

Nothing says it better than a cartoon, idea that an AR-15 is a bottle opener.

Never fails surprise when someone assumes their side is the only owners of firearms.

When there is others who own and know how to use firearms. They just don't feel the need to intimidate with, show off or play in public. Have them for a tool not a plaything.

Psst... could the fear of effective safety related firearm regulations be that.....these very ones opposing feel they will found to be undesirable. Unable to pass the screening or training.
