Supporting gun ownership rights is a move LEFT, not a move RIGHT. Taking away gun ownership rights is a move RIGHT, not LEFT. You've fallen for the media definitions. the media doesn't define things according to the political spectrum, they define things based on their audience. this is why the average republican voter can support the ideas of the republican party-they honestly think that the party ideals are about supporting the rights of individuals, because the media has painted them that way. They have been led to believe that a ban on gay marriage is about protecting their rights, just like a ban on abortion would be. the media has painted the gun ownership issue as a rightwing issue, but at its core it is about the rights of individuals versus the government, which is liberal.
