I am a DEMOCRAT and an OBAMA supporter. I also grew up with guns and owned and shot and hunted from a young age. People seem to think that Democrat automatically means anti-gun. Not so !
I was at a rally for a local democratic candidate and, in talking to many of the groups, most owned guns and some of the "white haired ladies" there were packing with a concealed weapon permit!
You do see concern in inner city areas where crime is a major problem but D's & R's alike are politicians first and rights advocates second. Both sides will feel the direction of the wind and talk that line when it is to their political advantage.
Recent years have seen civil and constitutional erosion created by politicians under a republican president. ALL of our rights are or should be sacred but some less so according to the current congress. "We the People" have to keep our voices heard. The next batch to hit DC will be "gun shy" after the upset that is about to happen.
