It’s another fill-in-the-blanks commentary from God not Guns. Any hobby, belief, sports team, etc. has its “fundamentalist” followers, texts, icons, etc. and the article at best shows that gun lovers are just like everyone else…

Besides, Transformers are way better than Gundam any day! ;-)

Google-fu is the ability to search google for information. What you’re really affecting/denying is their PageRank.

No, I do agree that there is an irrational component to some of the pro-gun movement, usually the black helicopter people. However, most of the mainstream pro-gun advocates arrive at their “point of advocacy” via the Tunnel of Logic.

not the least of which is that the gun rights movement is predicated on logic and reason

While parts of it are obviously more reasonable than others, I think it would be a mistake to claim the entire movement is rational. How many of us know or have met people who justify things with some vague paranoia about “the gub’mint” being out to get them?

And as I’m sure someone will eventually argue, a number of fundamentalists consider fundamentalist thought to be completely logical.
