Yes my opinion has been changed. Before reading the gun threads for the past several days and even though I have been a gun owner and shooter for most of my 59 years, I didn't understand that there are millions of gun nuts whose entire purpose in life seems to be guns. Now I know.
Guns are a tool. You need to shoot someone, get a gun. But to make yourself obsessed over guns is something I didn't quite realize was going on in the numbers it is happening with.
I mean we have people who are willing to die over my right to buy a weapon that I don't want or need.
And when your right to shoot at trees with a semi auto weapon is more important than the person with a 7 year olds right to feel that their kids should be safe in school from deranged young men with semi auto weapons bought by their mom, well I just can't understand that thinking.
