Had to keep my mouth shut

You took the right approach.
Fortunately I do not have such problems. I have NO friends who are liberals or anti-gun, and some other things as well.

So. You can either engage in a verbal sparring bout, or let it go. You certainly won't change a mind so entrenched. All that does is makes everyone there uncomfortable with a nasty fight. Who cares if she thought she "won"?
 
You know, the "why don't you have a CCW licence, are you a criminial?" is a good response.

Not KC, I won't keep my mouth shut when confronted... and I lay it all on the line; I have shrapenal in 6 areas of my body, the only reason I'm alive is my M16A4, I've killed men and women it ain't that bad, there's too many bad men in this world, the police aren't required to protect you, the police most likely arive in time to protect you. Oh yeah, I get all into it.

I ended up in an argument with a very ignorant liberal gun grabber in the bar one night while out with a couple of friends (that were trying to lay the moves on her friends) Two of the three females were from San Fransisco, it was quite entertaining, I was some what of the DD and getting quite bored and made several arguments that started to change her mind, I did convince her that it was her god given right to go to a shooting range and rent a gun and try it out or take a firearms class and become educated... If I wasn't married I'd probly have taken the arguer to the range the next day, (I'm not too up on takeing other women to the range) ended up buying her a beer, I told the bartender, "I want to buy this fa**et loveing, liberal hippy a beer"... imagine the bartenders face, this chick had the nerve to ask for my number, and was quite entertained with me. She had all kinds of ideas and opinions that I didn't agree with; about marrage, cars, family; you name it, I had the oposite opinion. I should have taken her to the local range, for an educational class, I'd pretty much gotten her away from the evil gun syndrome that her parents had brain washed her with.
 
When asked, I will give my opinion in any matter. Generally, talking about politics with new family members or people who you are trying to develop a new relationship with is a no no. I don't view it as a time to pass my agenda but rather a time to learn from others. Be polite and respectful and try to learn and teach.
 
Two rules I try to observe in those situations are:
A: You don't have to attend every argument you're invited to.
B: Never engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed person.




Notice I said "Try" to observe these two rules. I'm not always successful. :D
