Reply #46: on the second amendment - [View All]

[Coexist]

I live in a suburban/rural area - lots of red areas are.

Guns are history, hunting, sport, recreation, and tradition.

A fair portion of liberals live in urban areas.

There - guns are murdered siblings, drug dealers forcing them to move, drive-bys, dead police officers.


I really don't think the 2nd Amendment issue is as much of a liberal/conservative issue as an urban/suburban one. And therein lies the rub.

You should head over to the Guns forum on DU. You would be surprised how many Democrats love their 2nd Amendment rights.

Personally, I don't care either way, my dad hunted every year, I don't, but not because I hate guns. I just cringe at the thought of assault weapons. That's where I'm not comfortable.
