LOL! It's not as if you even have to own a gun, just contribute toward preserving second amendment rights, etc.

I used to be totally anti-gun, hardly bought toy ones for my kids, had cap guns and all the fun of that when I was a kid. But then years ago I got to talking to somebody about wishing they would grab guns, he was a liberal of all things IIRC, and he said if they got rid of all the guns, then only the military/police and criminals would have them. So that made me more open to regular people owning them, but I must say some people aren't stable or responsible enough to have them, and unfortunately, some of those are the ones who have bunches of them.

But I thoroughly respect stable people owning them and learning gun safety and are responsible about it. So I changed my mind. And I'm slowly changing a few others' minds that are mature, responsible, no substance abuse probs, etc., and some are more open now than I would expect.
