    I don’t think that’s what they mean, they mean that the people who are super hardcore gun rights people would never vote democrat regardless of the democrats stance on gun rights, because in addition to being super hardcore gun rights people, they’re super hardcore anti-all-other-rights people, also known as republicans. Certainly not all of them, no absolutes etc, but the vast majority. People who own guns != gun nuts.

      Super-hardcore “I should be able to buy full-auto rifles at Walmart” guy here - also a registered Democrat.

      Democrats are iffy on guns, but the GOP sucks on every single other issue of freedom for working-class people.

        Exactly. 2A rights are damn near the only thing I agree with far-right Republicans on. So I have to vote strategically if I want to keep all the other rights.

      I’m hard core pro2a and will be voting blue this year. I’m a no regulation guy who wants our politicians to fix our society via social safety nets and reform vs prohibition style legislation…there is a lot more of us now than ever

        Yes! You’re not the kind of person who they were talking about. You’re the gun owner but not gun nut kind
