I am starting a new and only loosely related topic about tribal perceptions about access to guns turned from one of freedom to compulsion. I am mystified at how persistently 'anti-gunners' I talk with claim that 'gun enthusiasts' want to make compulsory the arming of school staff. That compulsion is being promoted by no one. How did they get this idea? Instead, enthusiasts have proposed that those that are willing, able, and trained to have the option to be armed.
I see in different topics (not just related to firearms) how 'the tribes' marginalize the other side, often conflating freedom with compulsion, and they like to cite the very fringe advocates versus the main narrative or even any actual proposed legislation. It seems society would rather claim that 'others' are ridiculous versus engaging them as serious, moral, and intelligent people that happen to disagree with our own 'holy' views.
