(1,954 posts)"Why should any measure that can make a difference have to leave you unimpacted?"
I never said it -had- to. I find it undesirable, and prefer to find something that works equally well without impacting others. This is borderline impossible with the die-hard extremist Controllers. The new law in Olympia Washington does -exactly- that, and it has my full support.
"What makes certain gun owners so special, or selfish, that they cannot tolerate a little change in behavior that postively affects everyone? "
Obviously it doesn't positively affect -them-, therefore, it does not positively affect everyone, defeating your question with itself.
"Is there any number who would have to get shot before you would suffer a little inconvenience?"
To be blunt, no, so long as there are options available. If, down the line, all non-intrusive legislation has failed, -then- I would be willing to consider blanket bans and such extremes. If there are no options outside of a complete ban, then the ban would have my support, albeit unwilling in the extreme.
