29. I notice a lot of far right gun owners and NRA supporters

seem to place a higher importance on gun ownership alone rather than gun ownership and responsibility. There's one particular couple who are Paulbots and Infowars supporters/fans. They just got a gun for their 7 year old son, having instructed him to use it on anyONE who threatens his liberty. I literally threw up upon hearing about this. I personally have no problem with gun ownership, or even conceal carry, but am I just muddying the whole "right to bear arms" concept when I say I don't believe that those who are mentally ill or those who have been convicted of a violent crime should be allowed access to guns? Aren't ex-cons not allowed to vote?

I've gotten off topic. But yeah, these are just my views, and they may be misinformed, so I'd love if someone were to update "my files" lol
