I am not a gun person. But for the gun persons, how about you speak out?

34. But when we speak out, we are often called a gun nut

And whatever else. I am very liberal, I loathe the NRA (see my current OP about that), I own several gins and hold a CCW, the later for when I go running and when I travel by myself on lonely stretches of interstate. As current as last night, I was sneered and ridiculed and yelled out on here. Including correcting posters who post wrong facts about firearms.

THAT is why most of us don't speak out. When we do, for any reason, we are almost always attacked in some way, and generally group with the Gunegeoners. As my OP on the NRA stated, it is possible to be a gun owner and loathe teh NRA. It's also possible to be a gun owner and be liberal. There are a lot of us.

Frankly, it is unfair to US to expect us to prove a negative. As someone else said, it's like asking a Christian to speak out about Fundies.
