The battle is over independent voters. That's what presidential elections are about, but it's also what public policy legislation is about. Thus far, the evidence that gun-rights folks are more persuasive and logical with their arguments is the fact of the overall liberalization of gun laws in each state and at the federal level. That liberalization could not happen, and be sustained, without gun-rights folks getting independents on board. And also getting independents to reject gun-control arguments.
Are gun-control advocates, and yourself, not realizing all that above? The persuasiveness of logical and rational argument is undeniable.
