So it is, but it is no more or no less an agenda on one side than the other. Strong feelings and attempts at strong actions are going both ways. I sort of expect extreme partisans to think the other side is abusing government power and forcing their culture on the other half of the culture while one's own side is saintly and innocent in that regard. I don't buy that either faction will back off the conflict, will stop pushing the other.
How do you think gun rights people are going to use government to impose their culture? They're going to pass laws requiring everyone to go to the shooting range every week, and go hunting once a year? That doesn't sound very likely to me.
