even amongst these types of people that are buying a gun, it is an act of hypocrisy. They'll engage a civil right when it suits their purpose, the very same civil right they sought to deny or infringe on when it suited their purpose.

It is not a result of them having 'seen the light' of truth, it is the myopic self-centeredness of these kinds of people and the mental and moral cowardice of hypocrisy it produces in them.

they deserve no compassion or regard of any kind and to do so is a mistake as doing so will not change anything within them, to show them such is a mistake Trad American has made for far too long.
You're painting with a pretty broad brush there, amigo. I think you'd be plenty offended if we lumped you with any and every fringe element that also supports the 2A.

I have a couple of friends that have converted over the past few years from dems to LTC holders who champion the cause and now vote with us.

If you honestly believe what you wrote, do the rest of us a favor and stay quiet... and let those of us that are willing to invest in others, affect change.

third time, from my two previous posts : "....the best we can do is not waste time on them, moreso attempt to reach those portions of the public who are still mentally and emotionally reachable."

see that part where it says about reaching "..those portions of the public who are still mentally and emotionally reachable" ?

1. can you give me a basis of validity as to why your response is in any way a legitimate response owing to you either deliberately ignored what I specifically wrote in terms of delineating the difference in peoples behavior not once but twice.
Or did not bother to read what I specifically stated and hence your post is done in the very ignorance I specified.
That being contempt prior to investigation.

yes or no.
I believe you erred on that last posting. You incorrectly attributed those words to me, but they were not mine.

Easy to do on this forum - I’ve done it myself a few times.

Clearly some people didn't know how the laws in place worked and now have seen the light of day. Belittling them might cause them to revert back... a little compassion (something they are used to) goes a long way to showing them we are already in an overly restrictive environment.

Even if only a small percentage change- that helps our cause. Votes are votes!

There are those in the public whom fall into this category, the types of people in this article are not.

Apparently people cannot change, and even if they do, you’ll never accept them.

TAM: you immigrated here from California, so you are likely still the most liberal among us. Time for you to go: your writings on this forum are clearly not welcome anymore.

Yeah, that last paragraph of mine was the simply the stupidest thing I’ve ever written on this forum.
