(813 posts)Except that "calling for guns in schools" is nowhere near the extreme end of the pro-gun spectrum. That would be more along the lines unrestricted availability of automatic weapons (or even other man-portable versions of "arms"
, permitless concealed carry, removal of age restrictions, no waiting periods, no NICS checks, abolition of the need for FFLs for dealers, etc., etc.
Since very few serious pro-gun people are calling for those items in a strategy of "framing by extremes", and are themselves calling for additional laws sch as the availability of NICS checks for private sellers, it would seem that the pro-gun side is much closer to the moderate center than than those whose starting position is "ban all guns", and in much greater peril of winding up in the other camp's turf than the ant-gunners are.
