We will keep our 2nd Amendment rights as long as we don't allow the Liberals to elect a bunch of Brady approved representatives to our Government.VMI77 wrote:You guys with the anti-gun wives scare me. Maybe not so much as you describe the situation in your case, where you say your wife respects the right to own guns, but even here, if anti-gun spouses can't be convinced by someone they know care about and respect, that guns are important to self-defense, what is our long-term chance for keeping our 2A rights when we're dealing with liberal anti-gun strangers?drjoker wrote:However, she dislikes guns personally (not politically, though) and never carries. We don't have any guns at home, but I've stashed a pistol with the neighbors (shh.... don't let her know!).
We had another thread going where some of us with what I'll call "gun reluctant" wives, GFs, etc, discussed our situations. Often times, they really aren't anti-gun Liberals but are simply concerned about us being arrested or harmed because of our guns. There are sufficient real life situations (i.e. Costco shooting) to make them wary. With time and a steady patient approach, most of them will get over their fears and become full supporters.
I have no hope of winning over true anti-gun Liberals. Goodness knows, I've tried on many occasions. Usually, my head hurts for several days after each attempt because I just cannot wrap it around their arguments which are totally devoid of any logic, reason, common sense or facts. I have found those folks to be consistent - they approach all subjects the same way. That is why they want to starve thousands of CA farmers to protect a 2" smelt fish - that probably didn't need their protection in the first place.
Reading this thread, I don't think there is any problem with Whole Foods.
