The worst was a poster who stated that all gun owners were terrorists.
Now because I am a gun owner you are accusing me of being against a woman's rights to have an abortion and in favor of posting the names of abortion doctors and their patients online.
Out of the 80 million gun owners in our nation I am sure that a percentage are opposed to abortion and out of that group some might post names on the internet.
At the range I used to shoot at was a long table in the lobby and often the regular shooters would sit and discuss items of interest. Surprisingly we rarely discussed our firearms unless one of us had bought a new one or someone was looking for advise on how to more accurately shoot his weapon.
The most popular subjects were current events, politics and computers. That is where I learned that many gun owners actually support most of the ideas that our party has but simply refused to vote for ANY Democrat because of our party's views on gun control.
Abortion was one subject that never came up. I suspect that since only a few of the regular shooters were extremely religious that most would have supported a woman's right to choose as I do.
