We seem to be at an impasse... I think you missed my point and you just restated yours again while ignoring what I have already contested. Using Chris Kyle's murder or those kids from Sandy Hook for political positioning is deplorable and no different than Obama strutting those kids on stage to support his cause- nothing but theatrics. Likening a SEAL to a rent-a-cop or visa versa or suggesting a SEAL isn't an actual expert, particularly in light of his recent murder, was out of line and I find that offensive.
When you are casually passing some time with some friends at a gun range, you wouldn't expect to have to defend yourself and being blindsided would make self defense impossible. Maybe it is a different experience for you, as the media and president's agenda would have you believe that guns are inherently evil as are the people that have them, but I wouldn't be so paranoid as to believe that one of my companions would suddenly turn on me and, in that case, I too would be equally defenseless.
I still think you are a great guy and a huge benefit to the board and this isn't a personal attack, I just thought your statement and position is callous and insensitive.
