The personal attacks make us look small, angry and heartless. Truth is, 2A supporters are the opposite and it benefits us to recognize her physical suffering at the hand of an armed lunatic and work to ensure the acts of a tiny and literally crazy minority do not jeopardize the 2A for us all.
    We all agree that Gabby is wrong. JVC is on target. Let me tell you... Both sides feel the same about each other "Unfortunately the anti gun left does not understand logic or facts". I think that it may be worth it to read many of the comments on this thread and look at them from the other side. Again, I don't agree with anything Gabby (and her husband) are doing. It pissed me off that somebody from out of state was allowed to talk and get all the publicity while NONE of us even got our 3 min to be ignored at the so called 'public' hearings. I also think that many of our statements in this thread and others could be used "out of context" to construe us all as very insensitive. This whole thing reeks of using a human shield and the sad fact is we lose either way if we are not smart in our approach.
