As a left leaning individual with multiple firearms and plenty of ammunition for them, might want to consider there are plenty of us are part of that 47%.
Obviously a sample bias, but quite a few fellow veterans that I went to college with could put my meager collection to shame and share similar viewpoints.
That being said, your doomer outlook and gross oversimplification/assumptions are a joke. There will be no civil war, assholes will continue to be assholes, and you are still making this shit up as you type. Most of these Meal Team 6, cosplaying motherfuckers are too chickenshit to have an altercation where they aren't the only one with the scary broomstick, and 99% of the blowhards wouldn't last a day in an actual combat scenario let alone a "war".
Bigots are bigots and will constantly attempt to suppress that which doesn't align with their narrow minded worldview, however a civil war is not on the horizon.... JFC get over yourself.
I think liberal gun owners have 1. A much better grasp of the first rule of fight club, 2. Don't have a fetish about what amounts to a tool.
There's no real evidence to substantiate that claim, but a whole lot of right wingers are open about their gun ownership. Which I agree is stupid, but that's just how reality is.
Some sauce:
So clearly right wingers are twice as likely to own guns as left wingers, meaning they will likeky win a civil war when it comes down to it, and given what they want, you can't afford to continue being in denial about this. Your life is at stake here.
