Some crazy Politican: "We need to make sure same-sex marriage is outlaw, same with same-sex loving people which should be required to get sent to mental hospitals and camps, same-sex loving people are mentally ill, they produce and spread a wide variety of STDs, they are more criminal in nature even though I have no sources or studies to prove my statement!"
Public: "[i]Oh my god, he's an idiot, he doesn't know anything about same-sex loving people. What another idiot. I can't believe someone who doesn't know what they're talking about is trying to restrict rights and liberties on others.
Some crazy Politician: "[i]We need to ban a abortion. It wrecks a women's -blam!-, a woman can easily stop -blam!- assault sex so no one needs it!"
Public: "Oh my god, look at this idiot. He clearly doesn't know what he's talking about, why should a old white man decide what I should do with my body
Some craxy politican: "We need to ban assault weapons and clips. No one needs a AH-KAH-FO-TEH-SEVEN! They're made for only KILLING people, they're only assault weapons. No one needa a fully semi-automatic weapon with extended clips for durr hunting and self defense[/i'
Public: "[i]Oh, I guess no one needs those dangerous weapons of mass destruction"
By the way, this whole comment wasn't made to debate about what should be legal or not or what views are right. But just showing how someone who is inexperienced on something they want to restrict would get a way more negative response for making statements above when it comes to political topics; like abortion (Todd Akin, anyone?). The fact there's so many people in the media and politicians doing this is just sad. As a gun owner I can understand people who do truely understand guns and their capabilities want to restrict or ban certain firearms or accessories. But it's down right terrible if you're inexperienced and want to restrict stuff which you know nothing of.
The fact that if you're not a gun owner or interested in firearms that it would be easier to spread anti-gun views to a large amount of the population who are also inexperienced too. If you go back decades, those two examples of abortion and same-sex rights would actually be accepted into society by the public because people were much more inexperienced in those subjects back then.
