A good read. A leftist/liberal gun owner explains to other liberals the mistakes they keep making regarding gun control.

Dear Gun Control Democrats: 6 Ways to Make a Better Argument

1. Stop Sending Mixed Messages

I wish I had a dollar for every Democratic politician and commentator that has looked into a television camera over the past few months and said, “No one is trying to take your guns away!”

Allow me this humble suggestion: The best way to convince the American public that you’re not interested in taking guns away is to stop talking about taking guns away...


2. You Have To Understand What You’re Regulating

This is common sense for any sort of regulation, but especially when you’re dealing with something specifically protected in the Bill of Rights. Unfortunately, it has not been the case.

New rule: If you don’t know how guns work, you don’t get to craft legislation about them. There is nothing so embarrassing as watching a Democratic politician who has never held a gun in their life attempt to talk about why and how they should be regulated...

3. Stop Using Children

4. Stop Pretending Background Checks Don’t Already Exist

5. Treat the NRA As What They Are: Other American Citizens
