I'm a gun owner, and a father. I'm sick, I'm sad, and I'm ready to talk about gun control...

27. No thanks or apology necessary.

We're all upset, as we should be. I actually cried today as I was doing my job when I heard just how bad this tragedy was.

My personal claim to being a "gentleman" extends no further than my unwillingness to let my wife touch a door handle, be it the passenger door of my truck or an entrance to whatever building we're entering. That and holding the door for whoever is entering behind us.

My ability to communicate my feelings is directly relatable to how much Wild Turkey I've imbibed, and goes down accordingly.

On this though, I'm willing to talk. I'm a gun owner; though I'm willing to talk about who should own guns and what kind of guns they should be allowed to own if any at all. Other gun owners might see this as a threat to their RKBA, and though I support that right, I am "evolving" just as President Obama "evolved" on his support of the right of gays to marry.

For the record, I've done a lot of "evolving" since my daughter came out a few years ago...
