I decided to reject the left versus right paradigm.
I'm a "liberal", have many "liberal" friends, and WE all own guns, have for years! WE don't want to have OUR guns taken either. WE don't want YOUR guns .... if you are deserving to have them. WE just don't want NUT-CASES to get them soooo easily! Terrorists to get them soooo easily! WE TOO are "attached to gun RIGHTS ... NOT TO GUN STUPIDITY! I used to be a PROUD NRA MEMBER .... until they were taken over by radicals! I used to instruct in NRA sanctioned "Gun Safety" classes! I used to shoot in NRA sanctioned shooting matches! I am attached to the OLD, not the NEW.... gun "rights"! MANY "liberals" love guns too! (We just are not too sure of some of the OWNERS!) 1

That's good to hear. “The moment when someone attaches you to a philosophy or a movement, then they assign all the baggage and all the rest of the philosophy that goes with it to you. And when you want to have a conversation, they will assert that they already know everything important there is to know about you because of that association. And that's not the way to have a conversation.” -Neil deGrasse Tyson 1
