You ask: 'Did someone say they were? '

Yes...you implied that.

You ask 'Oh, so you think those who want absolutely no gun regulations at all need a seat at the table as well? '

Yes.

You ask 'Or do you really not mean "removing anyone from the discussion is more BS."

No (assuming I understand all your double negatives).

Look, I welcome ALL to the table. Do a Google search on this site. I support the First Amendment, which is followed by the Second.
