You should argue with the antis--- but don't waste time on it. You can plant the seeds.
Or better yet, if you know them well enough, invite them to the range.
I used to be a liberal and had vaguely anti-gun opinions (The gun issue wasn't my primary issue)... but a Lifetime NRA member-- who I made fun of when he told me about his membership-- took me to the range. We never did agree on politics during our friendship, but he planted the seeds.
My single issue hasn't changed, I've just realized the Democrats were lying about it and the republicans don't really support the constitution so I can't support either.
But don't fall into the trap of thinking the world is homogenized into two groups, leftists and republicans. Many of the republicans are just as anti-gun and just as socialist as the leftists.
And many of the leftists are that way purely because they support human rights. And those people-- all you have to do, is show them how all human rights should be supported, and eventually they will come around.
