I just wanted to thank Jon Snow and the others that didn't get too worked up over my post about California gun laws. I now understand, and I wholeheartedly agree with you. I was wrong. But I had to hear some arguments to help work it out in my head.
It's unfortunate that so many people are anti-gun. I guess the fear is bread of ignorance. Those that do not own a gun have probably never even touched one. They only see them on cops or on TV, and much of what they see on TV is negative or otherwise criminal activity.
I think our only hope is to turn things around at the grass roots level. And as I said in my first post on THR, anti-liberal or anti-California, aggressive rhetoric is not going to help win over the liberals, and trust me, we need them on our side. There's no fundamental reason why a liberal can't be pro guns and pro 2A, so please minimize the comments that will only serve to alienate those people.
