168. I think no one can be trusted with guns
We as a society we decide as a group that certain vetted people can have guns for law enforcement or national defense. I don't trust anyone with guns. If that makes me evil so be it, a majority of Americans don't own guns and %70 of American's don't own guns and want stronger regulation. By far the highest percentage of gun ownership is among the hard core rightwing who are our sworn enemies and not someone we could or should win over no matter what we do about guns or other kulturewar issues.

Poll after poll says that large majorities of Dems don't like guns. I guess that's my true colors.
