I get the impression that you don’t realize that there are a whole hell of a lot of gun owners in America that LaPierre doesn’t speak for. I’m a hard leftie. I only own 7 guns right now (3 hand guns, 3 rifles, 1 shotgun) because I needed to sell 3 to buy Christmas presents. I hunt. I target shoot. I have a Wisconsin concealed carry license.

I am a member of the Democratic Socialists of America.

I have never been a member of the NRA.

I have opposed the NRA at every opportunity.

What other straw man do you wish to discuss? Just because he’s a loud mouth who makes a shitload of money from the gullible & the fearful does not mean he speaks for every gun owner.

There are a lot of responsible gun owners. We just don’t make the news.
