Agreed, but it was inevitable. When you have republicans passing open carry laws and more and more people are carrying guns on the street the other side is gonna start carrying too. The gun nut crowd said in videos I've seen that we were pansies for not owning guns and we would be cowed. One video from the gun nuts occupying the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge claimed there'd be a civil war and he and his gang would win because they had all the guns and the liberals had none.Which is nonsense. I know lots of liberals with guns and moderate dems too. We just don't parade around with them on the streets. We're going to have to pull back from the brink and enact some sensible gun control, that both democrats and most republicans except for the gun nuts will support. Or we'll see more and more gun fights in the street.

True, thanks for pointing

True, thanks for pointing that out. Still, I find it disturbing that so many more are buying.

Buying a gun doesn't mean you don't support gun control. Even most republicans supported many of the proposals. And the last bill got 54 votes in the senate. Limiting clip size, background check at gun shows and several other proposals get most republicans support

Every gunmaker is reporting diverse demographics are buying tons of guns this year, seems it was only a matter of time until we saw falling Democratic support for gun control.
