Most people I know either like or don't like guns. I don't have anyone that only likes hunting guns if that's what your referring too.

I didn't have many friends before so I'm good.
I don't hunt anything that can't shoot back. So I prefer they are not as equally armed as I am.

No I was referencing to I hunted with AR's, Once the Safe Act came I had friend telling me he agreed with it and my AR's were not needed for hunting or anything other than people killing and it was cheating hunting with them. etc...

LOL, you military or LEO? lol
Many of my lifelong friends here in NY are not gun owners. I try to bring them along and educate them a bit at a time, but honestly, it's a long road... Now, friends in other (much more friendly gun states), - that's a different story entirely. They are almost all avid gun owners!
So, being stuck here in New Yorkistan, I'm making a few new friends now that I am free of the old ball and chain (who was very anti gun BTW, which is why I never owned any guns while married to her). And strangely enough, they are pretty much all pro gun. Imagine that.

Pretty strange when it comes to few hunters the way they think, That in long run ruins things for them also, that they never think about!

Same here. Kind of like crossbows during bow season. I don't use one but will NEVER vote it out, it's the small things like that - THAT lead to big things in other laws down the road...
My friends and family aren't into guns. So I'm pretty much on my own lol. I just got a friend into it, he bought a 10/22 and suped it up, got bored and a month later I helped him build his first AR. Other than him and 1 other friend, I don't really know any gun people. that's why I'm on here and just joined a gun club! To meet other gun owners and learn new things! But no, I don't hunt. Not unless someone breaks into my house, then it's open season.

I associate with the comment "I didn't have many friends before so I'm good."
Yup. The few I do have are gun people and anti SAFE. Although one guy doesn't really understand MSR ownership and I don't care to explain. He is kind of a FUDD, but he has been coming around to supporting people owning MSRs on his own.

I don't hunt and the vast majority of my friends and the SCUBA community around here is pro gun.
The few I come across that are lefties really have no idea what thy are talking about. They get their news from the MSM, it's all the same washed up "Why do you need X...he isn't coming for your guns...assault rifle" kindergarten crap. So we just avoid politics.
Hell, one of my SCUBA buddies is pro gun and pro SAFE...still can't figure that one out.

Anyone I've spoken too with the exception of a few people that don't know what the safe act really is, recognize that it's just more stupid gun control. Nobody has to like guns, but geologically speaking like anything, people will follow trends within their specific areas and mimic other people around them almost subconsciously. More people would rather flow in a crowd then stop and think to ask why. One person that has never used or learned about firearms or the laws pertaining them may tend to influence other friends and family into thinking they're inherently evil devices without knowing why they think that. They don't think about the real evil that firearms eliminate on enemy lines everyday around the world, and they don't think about the other common usages their neighbors might use them for like camping, home defense, shooting sports, concealed carry, collective value etc. It's that kind of thinking and lazy lack of understanding that spreads like wild fires in designated populations. Combine that with other irrational views of collective ideologies, and you start getting people believing in pure bullshit, and voting for it constantly. That's where the elites push their agendas into cities with these voters, people that are fully dependant on the genius systematic structure that controls the narrative. These people are controlled by the agenda, but also each other when they go to get their daily starbucks coffee, read the local news, listen to the local radio, spend time around coworkers, close friends, family, and liberal media. Because of the severe brainwashing over an extended period of time, these people are literally being brought up thinking that defending yourself isn't necessary, why would they ever need a firearm for anything, the second amendment doesn't matter and is invaluable in this day and age, let the cops do it, and because something looks like a hollywood gun it must be more dangerous and unnecessary. It's a mental problem sucking the life away from independence, ingenuity and freedom of all americans.

When people are pro SAFE, try to make them commit to what they like about it. Everything they tell you will be something good that isn't in it.
Then a ask them " why do you think we needed to bay bayonet lugs ?" Then moce on to adjustable stocks, then or muzzle devices and when they're done saying they don't think that part is important a dozen times, they will be down to magazines, then ask why 10 rounds not 5 or 15. Eventually you point out that they just agreed that every single element of the SAFE act is BS, so why do they still support it ?
I honestly would like to see the Republicans introduce an anti-abortion bill and call it the "assault weapons ban of 2017", It could be written to ban some medical devices used for the procedure or something, just to force the left to admit that they don't support anything called an assault weapons ban.....
My cousin is like you but with my AR's. He loves them, wants one, thinks it's the coolest thing going, but makes fun of me incessantly when I hunt with them. He thinks semi-'s are cheating in hunting. He's a Mr. One Shot One Kill-type hunter.
Basically he says they are for killing people and everyone should have one for people who need to be killed, just not deer. Lol
As for everyone else, obviously a lot of the people I associate with down here are anti-gun. I don't hang out with many cops, my friends from growing up mostly couldn't careless, although I have taken them all over the years and one just got his pistol permit. I think the reason I am rarely in position to talk guns with anti-'s is that they don't know crap about guns and know they will get royally schooled if they open their stupid mouths around me, so we just don't bring that subject up.
Well, I do. But they ignore it. Lol

Luckily the people I hunt with are not FUDDS. We have all used an AR for hunting deer at times and always use an AR for coyote and other small game. They all hate the safe act. The majority of my friends are also gun owners so no objections there. My side of the family is all republican, pro gun and all own some type of rifle, including my sister who has a 20 gauge in her apartment. Now my wife and a lot of her family are anti gun but never say anything to me about their position on guns and still come over my house with their kids despite the safe full of guns. They don't ask and I don't tell and they have no idea what the safe act is.
