      It puts you in an ideological lock to say the least and when the purity tests start about which in group is “correct”, the debacle begins

      as we all know, meaningless purity tests are the best way keep an already fragmented ideological movement cohesive and not totally in a permanent state of full fragmentation

      If criminals do not follow the laws re guns why should lawful owners be required to?

      Also if one political side is allowed to own accuracy by volume, why is the other political side not allowed to?

      Why do democrats want to help the authoritarians via gun control? Because that is exactly the situation that is now in play.

        I’ve got bad news for you. Most of the guns are in the hands of the enemy. This was caused by not having gun control. The scared loonies are stockpiling them. Now do you get it?

          TIL I am a scared looney as a mostly liberal gun owner.

          That’s some wild logic lumping us with the looneys. We aren’t stupid liberals so we know when it’s likely a good idea to not be defenseless against the looneys.

            I didn’t say all of them were looneys. Go to the south sometime if you want to meet who I’m talking about.

              I know people in the south that stockpile that are not looney. Not even close. Some are liberal too. I think you have a problem with stereotyping people out of convenience. You should stop doing that.
