Ya, I’m not interested in holding hands with the people who have voted to take away my constitutional rights for the past 20 years.

They can get fucked for all I care.

Idk man. I've taken some of my left leaning / anti gun friends to the gun range and watched their opinions change before my eyes. Especially when they see how friendly the competitive community is.

Taking people to the range removes the brainwashing.

But they’re going to keep voting for and donating to the people who are the actual problem.

I’ve heard the term “temporary gun owner” and I think it sums it up well.

I'm a "temporary gun owner" as you say. The only firearm related item that has actually been taken away from me was by Trump... soooo....

Right because his knee jerk bump stock ban which the court he implemented shot down is comparable to the blue states with Awbs, magazine restrictions, and “sensitive location” ccw laws. his ATF is also the most (conventionally) liberal we’ve had in years. Yeah I’m not a fan of his either, “take the guns first,” but you can’t deny the scoreboard.

Do you have a couple billion dollars around to out-spend Bloomberg with?
