I don't think guns are a minor problem, so I couldn't have been trying to convince you of that. I have been trying to convince you that there are more than one issue related to guns. I've narrowed it down to 2 issues for the sake of argument. Excuse me but you started this thread of posts with the comment that there were bigger issues facing this country than gun violence. Apparently you have had a change of heart. 1) The right to bear arms has a long and good history of what makes our society strong. 2) Criminal use of guns is a separate problem. Everyone would like to stop criminals from weilding guns. I've pointed out that focusing on conservatives who value their gun rights is a distraction from getting to a more serious problem, which is guns in the hands of people with criminal intent. You (and other anti-gun people) refuse to consider the issues separately so we have this huge noise making devise going back and forth between conservatives (who are no threat) and left-wingers who just want a win for the team. You need to re evaluate your position. Its biased and ridiculous. And you need to do some more research. You treat decent people as though they are the problem, which they are not, and we go round and round accomplishing nothing (except selling more guns in one month than were sold in the previous three years). Doesn't that seem counter productive to the cause? You treat decent people as though they are problem??? Huh?! From where are getting this crap?
