Yup.. And we all need to do is not castigate people but instead bring them into the fold. People can change... Not all of them , but most.
When I first read the title, I assumed she went to South America of Africa or something. When she said she hung out in Alabama for six months, I laughed.
Haha, I liked the video. Seen it before, this is part of why I invite people to go shooting with me all the time and I preach gun safety at them! If you understand how something works, chances are you will not be afraid of it and will not be prejudice against it.
Good for her.
Some people are capable of opening their minds.
Oh, she gets extra points for being easy on the eyes.
We must send all antis to Alabama for 6 months.
This is spot on. Most of the antis I've been around simply think a gun itself is dangerous, just waiting to go off whether loaded or unloaded. Even my wife was like that. Sit down and show them how to be safe with it and all the sudden they aren't so scary anymore.Quote:

The less exposure people have to a right, the more willing they are to part with it.
Well, she went from one groupthink to another. But now she has both sides.Quote:
