Whoops! I misread your post. My bad.:/

Anyhow, since this gun discussion has "phoenixed" -- i.e., risen from the
ashes -- does anyone here seriously believe they are going to convince
anyone else here about gun freedom? I for one have been through many such
discussions on this list and elsewhere and no one has yet persuaded me to be
antigun. And the few people I've convinced to a progun position were few
indeed and mostly people who hadn't thought about the issue. (My
exboyfriend Corey, e.g., remains adamantly opposed to guns with some
exceptions. Other than that, he might be a staunch libertarian.)

If others agree with me on this, why debate it on the list?

Cheers!
