Yup, the downvotes are already coming. Either because people did not get my sarcasm or they disagree with us. Either way, solid post on your part. Sadly the people that are the most anti gun and most "outraged" over this topic are the least educated on it, have never held a firearm before, have never tried to buy one, and never grew up learning how to use them. But the squeaky wheels gets the most oil..as it were.

It's the classic "I know more about this than you do because I read about it once" fallacy.

Yup, and not pointing any fingers but alot of that comes from the major cities on the coasts and not the Midwest, which is where I happen to be.

I'm from the midwest too, and you're right. The cities with the least exposure to firearms feel like their opinions are the most correct.
