You seek to justify a view that privileges your own interests above everything else, including human life. That is the result of your position on guns. Therefore that is what you support. It's like someone who supports a war, and works hard to bring about that war, claiming they have nothing to do with the causalities that result. It's denial.
The law is a perfectly acceptable means of tactic of resistance. That's how segregation was outlawed.
It didn't end white people. It just meant they weren't the only ones in society with basic civil rights. You insist that others not have the right to political expression because it might cost you more money. Your values are crystal clear.
