My post didn't say all gun owners are assholes, but that's how they're trying to represent it. I said there are "more than a few" assholes on DU, and it can be wise to just ignore them. Those that chose to self-identify that my comment was about them in particular, well, that's on them. Perhaps it's because the shoe fits so well, and they know it deep down.

It reminds me of that Carly Simon song....
