It's virtue signalling for the 2A crowd

ok now I got to ask what is the 2A crowd or what does it even mean? Sorry to sound old but kind of seems I am catching up everyday on lingo.

The 2nd Amendment to the US Constitution, which enshrines some legal rights to being armed in the Constitution.

No worries, 2A is short for second amendment, the one that said people should have guns because a well regulated militia was necessary for national defense.

2A = Second Amendment, the holy text of gun fetishists.
