So, my question is with so many hunters hating us (anyone who owns an evil "assault weapon") and wanting our firearms confiscated, how do we get them on our side? Or at least get them to quit trying to throw us under the gun control bus?
I personally don't see them coming around until the govt goes after their "sniper rifles" and room clearing "combat shotguns", but by then it'll be too late for us.
It is a good question, with no easy answer. There are many pro-2A hunters, but, as mentioned, some who aren't. I suppose we need to convince them the antis aren't going to stop until all firearms are banned. There is a good amount of evidence of that. Not to mention many of the anti-2A crew are outright hostile to rural people.
I remember in the wake of the DC Sniper attacks, one of the anti-freedom muppets proposed banning "high powered rifles with scopes". I remember thinking I hope my fellow hunters are paying attention.
