One time on some internet forum debating the subject of citizens with guns, I informed some liberals that average citizens use guns thousands of times annually for self defense.
And wouldn't you know, there were a number of liberals who could not wrap their tiny minds around the idea that average citizens could use guns to defend themselves or others.
A number simply refused to believe that could be possible.
That's how deep anti-gun propaganda has been ingrained in many people.
