As a liberal Democrat, I worry about the damage we might do by rushing toward a fresh raft of gun-control laws. It's very hard to demonstrate that most of them -- registration, waiting periods, one-gun-a-month laws, closing the gun-show loophole, large-capacity-magazine restrictions, assault-rifle bans -- have ever saved a life...So "as a liberal Democrat," do you feel no complicity for enabling that harm, by giving aid and comfort to those "liberal Democrats" inflicting it on us?
Gun control not only does no practical good, it actively causes harm. [More]
I mean, it's fine and good that you say you understand the truth about "gun control." Now bring yourself up to speed on the evils of collectivists usurping undelegated authority, and we just might find some of that "common ground" your side keeps making noises about as they advance from a beachhead they've already captured and controlled.
