Seems gunners are old white guys too. [View all]

I'm a 68 yr old white guy. Maybe I have another 20 years maybe not. My guess is that most of the people making it hard on the middle class and the young are like me on the way out. That goes for those making the new gun laws that remove all restrictions on guns.
If so, some here might take heart in knowing that between now and another 20 years a new generation will be in charge. I think that will end the hold us old white guys have. You can make some sensible gun laws.
The NRA is trying to recruit a new generation of gunners but I doubt they will be like the current crowd because of the social networks they develop.
