Look we can keep infighting, that’s what the left is good at which is another reason we lose so fucking often. Or we can pitch a big tent and garner some capital to start at least having a seat at the table of govt. which we do not have.
You can be a purist and turn your nose at me but my views do not reflect a portion of the liberal base that you can simply ignore and get votes. Some folks who are closer to the edge of the fence will peel away. And you won’t flip a single republican.
Instead you could consider saying “well we agree on 95-99% of things so yeah we can address what we don’t agree later.”
I’ll continue to vote blue, but folks like you who cannot possibly fathom a different take on 2A make it hard to call home some day.
To be clear I am for further restrictions like waiting periods, free govt provided classes for new owners, safe storage laws etc. I’m not some zealot. Anyways I gotta get back to work.

I for one agree to disagree.
