Lets try and keep the conversation civil here...
If one thinks that a thread is redundant or not having a "point"...Then often its best to say nothing at all.
Lets all remember Rule Number One please...Be excellent to each other.
To answer the OP...
I , Like Joe Friday , try to stick to "Just the facts"....
Ask the other person questions , like Why do you think / feel / know this to be true , type questions...
Try to understand their experience or lack thereof , with firearms...
When answering or debating , I try to attack the position , not the person...
And with that said...
Its important to remember :
"What we got here is failure to communicate ...Some men you just can't reach"....

It's rational to me but I also believe there should be no restrictions on firearms. Selling that concept to others seems problematic these days. We have a sizeable percentage of the population who don't share the same belief. Convincing some might be better done with reasons why having the right to defend themselves and others would be advantageous.Is the inalienable right to keep and bear arms, our second right guaranteed by the Constitution, an "emotional argument"? Seems fairly "rational" to me.
I would welcome a chance to get a "Middle of the road " Legislator out to the range or to one of my displays.
I could then both "show and tell " using both facts and my love of guns and history ... to try and get some points across...

True. Now try to get a true or false answer as to which is the correct interpretation of those words. From judges to politicians to everyday Joes you will find varying degrees of what the 2nd means to them. In my mind it is pretty wide open, no infringement period. Many others will disagree. How to convince them otherwise is the goal. Or just ignore them for as long as you can.True or false? The 2nd A of the US Constitution says...….
"A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the People to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed, unless I say it's reasonable."
