In reply to the discussion: "NRA talking points"? How about anti-gun talking points? [View all]friendly_iconoclast
(15,333 posts)I can't think of any other group besides gun control advocates that display such obvious anhedonia
over what anybody else would welcome as good news
Sooner rather than later, I think the US will have universal background checks for firearms purchases
and I'm all for them (and have said so here at DU many, many times).
I've got news for ya, Bunky: we (as in gun advocates here at DU) are not your enemy,
nor does being a gun control advocate necessarily make someone your friend (crypto-fascists
like William Bennett, Rudy Giuliani, and Michael Bloomberg are the most obvious examples)
Given your demonstrated disdain for "those people", I'd be willing to wager $50
to the gun control .org of your choice that you've done exactly bupkes to try and get what
you so quaintly term 'gunhumpers' to vote Democratic.
I know I have- the last time I went out shooting, I was quite open about being a trade
unionist and Democrat. You know, trying to offset the fear, loathing, and stereotyping about gun owners
that emanates from too many self-described "progressives"...
