36,000 gun deaths per year is not a passing knowledge, that is documented fact.
Far right gun worshipers argue like theists, "what would you know about my holy book".
98 people a DAY die from use of a firearm. If America's collective attitude about firearms were sane, we would not be seeing those numbers.
Same with economics coming from the right. If the rich always got everything right nobody would be bitching. If the rich got everything right, there would be no need for voting.
I am getting sick about "responsible gun owners", because this is about ATTITUDE not individuals, climate not individuals. And again, I cant even point to Gawdzilla, or my friend John who grew up with firearms. And you probably WONT read what the family of the inventor of the AR 15 said either.

All I am getting from the far right is stonewalling and excuses to shoot more and sell more without regards to the 36,000 gun deaths on average per year. 98 deaths on average per day.
You said that already.
To be clear, I'm not even close to being far right. I'm a classical liberal. I believe people are basically good and can make their own choices without doing others harm. If someone is harmed that's why we have laws. I'm not in favor of laws that are intended to protect people from themselves. It's none of my business what human beings put into their own bodies or with whom they freely choose to fall in love, etc. Government is necessary and good, particularly in protecting the minority from the majority.
I am politically "unenrolled" - which is my state's way of saying I don't support either of the two main parties. My take on the Ds and Rs is that they strive for the status quo but brand it as ideological progress. I cast my ballot for Johnson last time. I'd rather vote for a fool than a monster.
36,000 people did make a choice and died because of that choice.
I am a liberal too, I also believe most have good intent, but again, if all it took were good intent we would not see those numbers.
