The 2A is not going to be repealed -  it doesn't have to be.   Instead, it will be effectively neutered by a SCOTUS decision.   

What the Supreme Court granted in Heller it can take away.   Just as pro-lifers have agitated for years for the SCOTUS to reverse its finding of rights for women,  so are liberals salivating for the day when the Supreme Court can reverse Heller and render the 2A an anachronism.   

Even with Heller still on the books,  there's little question that a good-faith regime of gun registration, licensure and insurance is Constitutional as a reasonable regulation of the gun right.  And most gun owners will understand and comply,  just as drivers understand why motor vehicles need to be registered and insured.   

And following nearly a century of automobile registration,  there's still no evidence it leads to confiscation!

As to the first point:  fair enough; however, if some nut job presents the democrats with a suitable tragedy to exploit, they will, and then nothing will stand in their way.

New Zealand, Australia, UK and a host of other countries proved that tragedy will be exploited for political gain.  "Never let a good crisis go to waste."

The Second will not be repealed, but the advocates of "reasonable regulation" will chip away at that Amendment every chance they get by plying the population with emotional arguments.  Been that way since the dawn of time.  It's pretty obvious stuff for spectators of this "sport."
