I target shoot! I have a 22 , and a 9mm .

I am unapologetic about this. Yes I consider myself a economic Keynesian, Yes i believe in social justice, and yes i support most of the progressive agenda save this one issue. I like target shooting. I find it stress relieving, I like to feel safe in my home. I like and respect the second amendment. So in this one aspect alone I sit outside the democratic party group. If the Democratic party could take one sensible position on this issue, Just one, and stick to that line in the sand, It would have much more support from people like me who believe that the right to keep and bear arms should not be infringed. Instead they continuously move the goalpost to disarmament of the people and reinforcement of the police state. Their has to be a middle way. Otherwise the Party has missed the boat on this. Heads will explode and the insults begin in 3...2..1.
