I think a misconception gun nuts have is that everyone who wants more gun control is some homo who knows nothing guns, nor has never fired or been near one. As a guy who used to reload his own 9mm, 5.56 and 12 gauge rounds in his basement, has built an AR15 through mail order, owned a Glock, Mosseberg 500, Ruger 10/22 (and those are the ones I can remember), fired full auto Ak variants, m249 SAW, mp5, Uzi, Thompson, etc -- I've probably forgotten more about guns than most people will ever know.
But why do I think it should be much harder for people to own them? Because I'm a pansy liberal?

Therein is one of the issues. I have friends that are very pro-gun conservatives and they constantly bitch about "having their guns taken away." When I point out that nobody is trying to take their guns that one of the things they want to do is just tighten up the way background checks are done they still think it is a smokescreen mean to take guns away. |
