Which tactic should we continue to take? I myself have been advocating for a reserved or conservative mentality with this whole gun debate. I have been pushing others to be calculated and politically correct on how they approach gun issues and what our image is. I still mostly think that way, however, I'm noticing very little difference that its making. Or is it even making a difference at all?
I'm not sure what to do and which direction to take, or for that matter, which direction we, as a whole, should take in political tactics on gun issues. Is being calm and collected still the way to go? I would think it would be. It shows the liberals that we aren't crazy gun lunatics and we are normal human beings. However, is this calm and collected approach advocating for gun freedoms a double edged sword?
Do the liberals think that we will be push-over because we have shown too much restraint and we won't really do anything about the push for gun control? The reason I am even contemplating this is, because they are continuing to push more and more and they aren't giving up. Do we need to act crazy? Do they need to think that we will explode if they push us another inch? At that point would they consider putting a stop to the gun control crap? An analogy that came to my mind and suits this parts of the argument well...You continue to poke a possum with a stick, but you only poke a hornet's nest once.
In addition, is there a different tactic altogether that I'm not seeing that may work? Am I just way off all together? Am I alone on this thinking? I'm not trying to start a war on the forums. I'm just being honest and wanting to see how others think about this issue. I would ask that everyone that does post to be friendly to others if they don't have the same opinion. We are all friends here and share a common love for guns and our freedom.
