I have heard it said many times that you cannot convince an anti that we are right about guns. Not true. I have done that.
Twenty years ago my then wife went to work for a Psychologist...who was so far to the left she could take one step to the left and fall off the left edge of the planet. She was virulently and rabidly anti gun, but she was also not opposed to learning and accepting logic and truth. I won't bore with a long story of how easy it was to shoot down (pun intentional) her arguments.
Slowly I got her to admit that she was wrong about guns. She was shocked to discover that all of the left's drivel and lies about guns were just that. She really was open minded, something few of the antis are. Being a Psychologist, she had always known, and finally grudgingly admitted it was the person, not the gun.
One day she came out to my place, and I asked her if she wanted to shoot a rifle. Her first time shooting a gun! She accepted and I immediately pulled out an AK-47 with a forty round magazine attached. She smiled and said she somehow just knew that I would have something like that around. It was my turn to smile. We went outside and I made her load the empty magazine, all forty rounds,which she managed to do without hurting her fingers too badly. I gave her some instruction and she fired off the entire mag, blasting jugs of water and rocks and whatever. She was giggling towards the end. When she was done I asked her which was more fun, loading the mag or shooting it off. She immediately got my point. Shooting is more fun than loading mags. The bigger the mag, the more time having fun between reloadings.
I took a picture of her holding the thing which she had enlarged and hung in her home. We finished by blowing up a patch of weeds with a pound of Tannerite.
I told her that was Redneck weed control.

he dropped , the second guy ducked sideways into a toilet and started trying to get out the window , number three turned and tried to run back down the passage , he made it out but not before she wounded him in the leg , he was picked up by cops later that evening , the guy trying to get out the toilet window got it from behind 
and not in a good way , number four must have heard the commotion and decided that it was not his night because he was never seen or heard from again , now i always ask the anti-gun people this one question , take that .22 out of the story and think how it would have ended for that little girl ? today she is a mother of two young shooters herself , God bless Samuel Colt and all those good people who made sure that the civilized , the young , the old and the sickly also stand a chance to protect ourselves from the violent and uncivilized people of this world
... to go shooting.
