Gun-control progress [View all]

[discntnt_irny_srcsm]

I think it's clear that the most likely path to progress on firearm rights v control issues will through the cooperation of individuals diverse in their beliefs about firearm dangers/benefits and party politics.

With that in mind, isn't it counterproductive to engage in making enemies of those who don't agree with all of your attitudes?

Regardless of your personal opinion on guns and related laws, can you discuss relevant issues with those opposed to your views and ideals without hostility or abandoning the exchange?
