I read what you said in post 22. You make sense and I agree with what you've said. But, when I looked into the gun issue I didn't see Kerry as being what the GOP was making him out to be on that issue - in fact, Cheney's own voting record was worse in this area.

I agree that not all gun owners are hunters and many in my area are collectors and/or want them for protection. In fact, I want to take a gun safety class myself - wonder if I'll ever do it. I used to have a roomate in the 80s who had a gun under the couch, dresser, and bed! I carry mace - hey, I might run into Ann Coulter, after all! Haha

I may have fallen into the wrong mindset, but I'm new here and so my opinions on it weren't formed from reading here.

Serious question: Is the Dem party against gun ownership? I really thought the simple answer to that is no.

Thanks for the info.
