"What if he says the cooks are terrorists! Will they come for me and everyone else who likes to cook!?"
Nobody is coming for the guns, least of all Newt Gingrich.

You couldn't have missed the point any further. It doesn't matter if you're the one getting persecuted. The point is that it's a idiotic idea that could extremely easily be abused or changed to serve other purposes.

"First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me."
