>>Except for those that have had a gun tragedy in their lives, the people I know that do not hunt or own any, really don’t ever think about them.<<
That’s true .... until the dark night when they are watching TV and hear someone fiddling with the front door handle. Yes, that happened to a liberal non gun owner who admitted to me that he came very close to buying a gun the next day but friends talked him out of it.
I don’t personally know anyone that has had that happen to them.
I could only imagine what that conversation might have sounded like. Almost dragged into reality by crime, the poor fool still didn't get it. tsk
