Reply #7: How many gun owners do you know personally?

[benEzra]

Men with tiny balls join the NRA because holding a gun makes them feel like a real man!

My wife owns guns, and can shoot the center out of a playing card at 21 feet with her Glock 9mm. She's also originally from Cambridge, Massachusetts, has a B.A. in English, is a poet, and studies Russian history and culture for fun. You think she owns and shoots guns so she can feel like a "real man"?

I'm a bespectacled, goatee-wearing, college-educated Gen-X'er with a B.A. and some master's work in English and literary criticism. I drive a Toyota Camry, play the guitar, and am dad to a special-needs kid. I own guns because I CHOOSE to, not because of any sexual inadequacies, real or perceived.

And no, neither of us hunt. Most gun owners (4 out of 5) don't, by the way.

Do you feel that way about gun owners because all gun owners you have ever met are that way, or because the MSM and the anti-gun lobby have told you we are that way?

How many gun owners do you know personally?

Not all prejudices come dressed in white sheets and pointy hats...
