Ex: Why would anyone need/want a semi-automatic gun?

Look at a how hunters have been portrayed in popular culture from the movie Bambi forward…

Look, I know that there are many people who would be just as happy with a law banning all guns, but that isn’t going to happen and it isn’t what most of us are talking about here. I know, I’ve had many conversations with gun owners over the past two weeks and it goes like this:

me: maybe we should talk about ways that we could all be safer.
them: YOU WANT TO BAN ALL GUNS.

It’s like the old Gary Larson cartoons, What you say vs what your pet hears. But we have to find some way to talk about this. I’m just not willing to let nothing happen again. 20 first graders butchered in a classroom after all the other mass shootings, is just too much. We HAVE to find a way forward on this issue.
