What upsets you the most about liberals?

I think for me it's how easily they get triggered.

Their insistence that you can't own guns and be peaceful at the same time.

Yep. That's exactly it (well... in reverse)

What stops you from owning? Expense?

@Kindheartedguy: While this might be true for the extreme left...(never ctually have seen anyone say that) It is NOT at all what "liberals" think.

It is the extreme right that claims this about liberals.

The fact is that the right claims guns are needed for protection..but want AR15's instead of handguns.

The fact is that no matter how peaceful you are...at any moment you can snap.

Quite a few gun deaths this year caused by "peaceful" "law abiding" gun owners.

@JaggedLittlePill: I very much agree that the right distorts badly the position of their opposition with gun control.

I see the point of self protection.
I don't like the idea of everyone armed up for the next Armageddon though.

I will not disagree with you, jagged. As you know... I came from a good hunting state and many of your neighbors came up to hunt.

Nobody in the group of guys I went with ever used an "AR" style rifle.

BTW... even though I own handguns... I don't think they are the best for protection. My friend's dad always sold us on the concept of a shotgun. Made perfect sense to me.

*************

My state was considering opening up the concealed carry law at the same time I was taking hunter's safety (I took it in my late 20's). Near the end of the course they had a speaker come in to talk briefly about CCL.

When it came time for questions, I raised my hand and said: You have spent the past two months teaching us about firearm saftey and how we should not even cross a fence while our gun was loaded... yet you are telling us it's ok for individuals to carry a loaded pistol everywhere. Doesn't that seem contradictory?

The hunter's safety instructor smiled and speaker did not even respond. When the class was over, the instructor came to me and said he would never carry for that reason but he didn't feel like he should prevent others from carrying.
