There are a not-insignificant number of liberal gun owners.

Opposing gun control and owning a gun aren't synonymous. Is that hard to understand?

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

Opposing gun control isn't one big bucket. There are a lot of nonsense policies that play into public fears and are unlikely to have any meaningful impact to the actual problems, yet limit individual freedom for law abiding citizens. It's possible to support sensible gun control, and oppose certain heart-string legislation.
