Reply #14: Just one man's opinion here

I am a Democrat, lifelong, and I am not opposed to gun ownership. But what it may boil down to is where a person lives in the USA. See, I'm in Iowa, a relatively rural area, and a lot of people around here hunt and target shoot, including me. But people in NYC, Chicago, Los Angeles, and other huge cities have little use for weapons except for self defense. It seems that very few big city people hunt or target shoot. Guns in big cities are often used in commission of crimes so therefore, some well meaning people probably wish to outlaw them. I'm sorry if any urbanites take offense to this. I certainly do not wish to lump all people together.
