Well a friend of mine that i work with, revealed to me today that he no longer holds the beliefs about firearms that he had when we first met.
I met this fella at the begining of the school year and he was very very anti-gun in the hands of we the people. And was very active against Ohio getting CCW. And would never have anything to do with a firearm himself.
Through the course of working together (work study at my school) the topic of firearms came up quite often.
Well today he asked me to take him shooting. He said that thru all of the conversations. even the ones that got extremely heated from time to time. That my level headedness helped him to understand the MANY reasons that our society needs to have guns in the hands of the civilian populace.
I never pushed it on him just showed thru example primarily (taking others i work with and all had a very memorable experince and 3 of those 4 are now firearms owners themselves.) But of course when it would come up i would talk about it. Though i was rarely ever the first to bring it up with this individual.
He said that he plans to take handgun training courses this summer and hopes to get his CCW towards the end of the summer.
Oddly enough this is the second of my good friends that has gone from extremely anti to really being interested and wanting to get involved for themselves.
We got another one back from the darkside!!!
