i believe we, as gun owners, need to hold ourselves to a higher standard of behavior. much the same as many members of nes believe the police should. it certainly doesn't hurt the cause.Lol and who do you believe the arbiter of that is?
Protip: thankfully it's not the media. Its an opinion generated more likely because people have gun owners in their circles of friends and family. At least in most of the
country, maybe not MA. Although with like half million LTC holders or whatever it is now, a lot of people probably DO know gun owners if they live outside of a big dump
city.
You naievly assume they even know it happened. Most don't. most don't even care. (gun owners or nons alike). Gun control is a peacocked/astroturfed issue in most of the
country, frankly.
Also most voters arent running around mentally kvetching and handwringing about gun control. Particularly not at this point after the last 2 years.
Different ballgame, different context.
when it comes to horrible media sources (like the GLOB) who have already been proven to be incontrovertibly harmful to gun owners?
No quarter. Not even one inch. Never.
The answer should always be- f*** those people. "get out, or I'm going to get the cops to get you out, your choice".
Dealers allowing media outlets that have clearly acted in bad faith and with bad intent is pretty horrible.
Communist media in MA should be viewed no differently than child predators, etc ad nauseam.
