I Bought My First Gun Because Of The CNN Town Hall

This fight isn’t about gun control. This is an ideological battle between those who believe in liberty and responsibility and those who would trade responsibility for a false sense of security.
After ten minutes of CNN’s town hall “debate” I had already searched for gun safes, the closest firearms dealer near me, classes on gun safety, and an NRA membership. Whether that’s a sign the event was a rousing success or terrible failure depends on who you ask. But whenever the left talks about gun control, significant numbers of people who see value in the Second Amendment run out and purchase a gun.
Normally, that wouldn’t include me. But this time was different. Here’s why.
