Yes, that's a problem that Liberals  have with every  American on the Right these days.  I think you should pay more attention to your crystal ball and even cling to your personal preference's as you often do even if it ends in your own demise. I mean, that is what left wing radicals have been taught to do right?                             

Well, I'm cool with that.

I don't think the Left reads crystal balls any more often than the Right does. But I stand on my statement that the Right's defense of the constitution consists of little more than the defense of the "right" of terrorists and nut cases to blow hundreds of innocent people away with semi-auto military weapons that have no place in a civilized civilian society. Anyone who defends this "right" is lost in barbarism, at least on this issue if not others.

And these days, those who oppose this "right" are not necessarily confined to those on the "Left." And indeed, support for our point of view is growing.

As for my crystal ball, it does imply the possibility that crazy portions of the Right (which may be sizable) may stage a rebellion if gun control is strengthened, in the mid 2020s probably. So, we'll watch some of you on the front lines get slaughtered by the state, probably. I don't ignore that you guys exist. Some of my fellow crystal and star readers and more sanguine and don't allow for this possibility.

But eventually, I don't know how far into the future exactly, I do predict civilization will prevail, and this meaningless scourge will end. I hope we can end the other scourges you guys inflict upon us, such as perennial virtual poverty and inequality, attacks on democracy, and destruction of our climate and environment. We might not have as long a time span available for those other issues to be resolved in our favor. If they are not, then America declines and fades away as a shadow of its former self, and the world suffers along with us.

Your crystal ball doesn't tell you that, your crystal ball says there's going to be turbulent/troublesome years during the mid 2020's. I'll be about 60 years old and I should still be in pretty shape for my age and I expect to be a legal gun owner who owns an AR-15 too. Gee, we have a common belief and even reached a consensus. Now, the mid 2020's puts us at about four score and seven right. 

As far as your statement, if I believed that every gun owner was a bad person, I would completely agree with your statement. If I believed that every person who owns an assault rifle was a bad person, I would completely agree with it. If I believed that every legal purchaser of a firearm was a criminal or cold blooded murderer and so forth, I would completely agree with it as well. How many Democratic gun owners know a fellow gun owner who used their gun to slaughter innocent children and how many of them would use their gun to defend innocent children? You better figure a way open up that mind of yours because it's going to need some new ideas after it goes through the trauma of losing the house.
