Believe it or not, there are plenty of Democrat and Republican gun owners alike who view gun ownership the same as you do, and don't make it their entire identity, political or otherwise. We just don't get constantly exposed to that reality, because it doesn't make for interesting headlines, or divisive online debate.
Good. I’m glad. I had my suspicions that was the case but it’s nice to have it confirmed by an insider. I always struggled to believe that an entire nation of so many millions of people would have a one size fits all pro/anti stance on any one topic; it’d be absurd.
