Thank you for saying this. On this and several other threads, I have seen a tendency to make blanket statements that group anyone who does not 100% echo Michael Savage, Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, etc. as one of those "gun grabbing liberals." The fact is that most Americans fall somewhere in the middle of the political spectrum--picking and choosing their beliefs on issues from both sides of the aisle. When we mix issues (ie. healthcare and guns, abortion and guns, religion and guns) we immediately narrow the field of people who are "on our side." Most Americans are pro gun rights.....BUT, that is not the most important issue for many of those people. Given a choice between gun rights and (insert issue here), many Americans will go with the issue that is more important to them. AND...many of those folks that consider themselves pro-gun may see the issue as an area where certain compromises can be made. If we alienate them, they have no incentive to listen to our argument.
:huh: Those guys don't even have the same political points of view. They each harp on their own soap box. I've listened to several of them and if you put them all in the same room they'd cut each others throats to get to the mic first
