I agree that a lot of people in the U.S. seem to have misguided ideas about why they should have guns. I feel like they're misrepresenting those of us who just want a fighting chance and to be able to protect our loved ones against others who may wish to harm us, but their position is their position.

I'll defend the right of gun ownership only up to the point where it's reasonable. Beyond that, I can't support those people who seemingly need to pump 30 rounds of incendiary hollow-point rounds into a deer, or even a picture of one, because it's "fun". That's not me, and that's definitely not where I'm coming from.
