In reply to the discussion: Is it possible to be a progressive DUer and a gun owner? [View all]The Straight Story
(48,121 posts)There are some who think you cannot be both, but they have a personal agenda they are working on.
I have shown time and again that the majority with guns are not the problem. It is the few (less than 1%) who cause the problems.
The problem is not the many who own guns but a few crazy folks who do - and I, like others, would like to see guns not in their hands. How we get there is what is up for debate.
I look for causes while others just blame the device for being the cause. If that were the case then there would be a lot more shootings and such than we see now.
We have enough laws already, which have been effective because most gun owners do obey the laws we have. But those folks get no press - and some here like to post about the few who don't obey the laws and try to apply that to all.
