you just contradicted yourself. if she's completely against guns, she wouldn't even want the military or the police to have them. she obviously sees a purpose and just disagrees on who should have access to them, which i think is a very reasonable discussion to have.
I believe as a liberal that guns should be able to be traced back to those responsible for providing the guns to whomever person shouldn't have a gun. I don't think only police officer's buddies should be able to have access to conceal permits. I think we should have laws that are fair and reasonable to everyone so that people can protect themselves. I understand though if a traumatic incident make someone just not want anybody to be able to sell their gun to whoever they want, or show their gunoff at denny's. I think we must respect that grief and trauma because it's real and it's not something people experience in countries that have stricter gun control. there has to be a middle ground where people who want to shoot a gun can be properly trained and feel safe, while other people who don't want to carry a gun or be around gun toting strangers can also feel safe. but we have to actually have a discussion and I think the media can help facilitate a discussion. but too often its two polarizing views that are completely ridiculous that most people don't even agree with.
