Some threads have got me asking the question... With all the anti-gun propaganda and the anti-rights mentality being championed within our public schools these days, how did you avoid siding with the anti-gun line of thinking?
It may seem just so logical and ingrained in who you are that this question seems redundant, but lots of us have different backgrounds and different exposures. Maybe you grew up with family members who hunted? Maybe your parents felt it important to raise you with a high sense of personal responsibility regarding your safety, later getting you into guns? Maybe your mom/dad owned guns and felt the need to teach this important skill? Maybe you experienced a traumatic event, like an assault, robbery, or worse? So, what was it that kept you from becoming "brain-washed", as you grew up and developed a strong sense of your own personal freedoms and protection regarding guns?
