My take on it, is that the general public has figured out that the issue is polarizing, and even though the gun-nut NRA members are a minority, they’re the ones with most of the guns, and they’re the ones building up militias, and they’re the ones taking it upon themselves to go manhunting at the borders, and they’re the ones with paranoid delusions of a civil war against the government.
Taking that into account, I’d rather not piss them off too much to their collective faces, because they might just pull out their prosthetic dicks I mean guns, and shoot me.
