What is the point of this post?
First I am not going to try to do as you direct.
I also don't support grabbing guns.
It seems to me you are asking people to see the world through your paradigm and doing that make a judgement on themselves.
There is a First Amendment before there is a Second. Americans have every right to say what they want about guns and gun control. They do not need to take a course on gun lore to have an opinion or to vote on proposed gun control legislation.
Sorry but I see your post as a self serving trap.

Reposting cartoons, while insulting others, is easy. Answering questions is hard

Outstanding post Shamash. I expect you'll be getting nothing but dodges and slurs, though.
