15. I don't know. You sound like a Legacy Republican to me

You sound like you are only a Republican because perhaps your family was, and your social circle is.
It's what is expected of you.

With the exception of voting for Bush, you sound like a Libertarian leaning mainstream Democrat.

Since Federal income taxes are at the lowest rates in many decades, are you talking about other tax problems?

Mainstream Democrats have no intention of messing with the second amendment, but many would like to have the culture of guns change.
I think most would like some restrictions by law, but also as in the case of cigarettes, change the culture by public awareness and education.
( maybe a little shaming too!)

As far as DU is concerned, they admins did start DU as a place for Democrats and to support the election of Democrats.
But there are many very left people here, even some anarchists. DU is not really reflective of the Democratic party as a whole.
