    Exception, not the rule - and the people downvoting me prove it. No one likes to be told their worldview is wrong.

    Edit: look into ideologically driven murders in the U.S., then look at ICE getting 20k more troops and natl guard deployed to LA. Look at the toys they have and tell me your hunting rifle is going to do anything when they have fucking tanks and riot armor.

        I don’t think they understand a vocal minority.

        MAGAs make firearms a part of their identity.

        I’m guessing you’d agree that most liberal gun owners don’t?

          I think gun ownership and political ideology are a venn diagram and trying to generalize it is just dumb. It’s also very regional. I live in upstate NY, belong to a rod and gun club and politics do come up but very few people present them as identity.
