No, we can't. You seem to be calling any kind of wacko a 'gun nutter' if he happens to have a gun.
And the media demonize gun owners far more often than not. How is that 'enabling'?
What I mean to say is that making the second amendment an issue leads to gun promotion and puts more of them in the hands of the unbalanced. But this article was about more than that. Media types and government officials who openly talk of renewing democracy with a little blood letting are a problem. Open carry zealots are a problem. People are a problem who think they have a responsibility to judge at a personal level when their second amendment rights call for an overthrow of government.
