124. All right...
I haven't run across those people yet, although I've been to the Gungeon a few times. I don't know who the people are that you're talking about. If that's all they have to say, maybe they shouldn't be on a progressive board, beacuse that really isn't very progressive.

Am I posting anything like that? Do those opinions look like what I am advocating? Is there anyone in this thread that has posted anything like that?

My point is that I am a voice in the gun rights movement too, and there's many more that think like me. We're not trying to force the situation in the US to our will-we're interested in finding compromise for the benefit of everyone on this issue. We are disenfranchised from the organizations that are supposed to represent us (the NRA being the biggest example) in much the same way that progressives are disenfranchised from this government. And because of this, we think that the attitude of many people on the left that 'anyone who owns guns is an ignorant redneck' is somewhat knee-jerk.
