      I don’t think anyone should need to own a gun. But I also don’t think owning a gun and talking about it makes you a “gun nut.”

          I dont own any functional firearms. I will talk about the Winchester Model 1897. But I will also talk about how the ford Pinto gets a bad wrap unprompted, so maybe ill just talk about random shit that way.

      It’s strategy. Many American swing voters own guns, the Republican messaging is that Kamala will take all those guns away, so this ‘admission’ is intended to make it permissible for those on-the-fence gun owners to vote for her.

      Kamala has secret service protection, she will likely have security around her for the rest of her life. She doesn’t need to own a gun. This is just messaging and posturing to capture votes, please recognize it for what it is.

      You have the choice of a conservative who supports more guns, increased aid to Israel, and a more closed border.

      Or the party of Donald Trump.
