I do consider that the antagonizers major experience of gun owners are images of the over-the-top types and, yes, the serious crimes and damage guns are involved with. They may not know any of the actual-for-real responsible gun owners...or they do but don't realize because the acquaintance doesn't advertise. And they wouldn't know responsible hunters...who may depend on it to eat reasonably well.
