If someone makes my property illegal (and me a criminal for having said property)..... for the crimes of another...I am a victim. I hope to avoid this by injecting some factual discourse into the conversation.
Nobody is coming for your guns. Stop looking at it like that. This is the same fear mongering car companies used when Nadar told them their products were not safe. We don't use rotary phones in mass either. We also should be getting away from fossil fuels. It's a matter of changing technology and we also no longer simply have nothing but muskets.
Instead of thinking of"me" why not think about what YOU can do for the country. Is what you own so precious to you that you'd allow one organization and one industry blind you into not seeing a problem? Stop clinging to the past and look to the future. What can we do to reduce gun deaths. Not "what can I do to keep making excuses to do nothing".
If everything worked the way the NRA claimed, we would not have the amount of gun deaths we do. Just like if religion worked the way people claimed we'd have no religious wars. It is the worship and paranoia I object to, not your rights.
