To whom? This is the Gun Control Reform Group, and I have absolutely no desire to have a "conversation" with anyone from the Gungeon -- meaningful, or otherwise. The dialog with gun owners like Gabby Giffords and her husband is both helpful and encouraging, because she is the forefront of a rapidly growing movement of sensible gun control, and I have donated heavily to her organization.

The years and years of the NRA and ALEC, and their right-wing proponents such as many who frequent the Gungeon, purchasing corrupt politicians to enact obscene CCW and SYG laws is coming to a close. There is nothing that you, or your Gungeon dweller extremist cohorts can do to stop the growing tide of opposition to the proliferation of lethal weapons in this country and the deaths and misery caused by too many guns in too many hands. Sensible and realistic gun control is coming, and it's coming faster than the "cold dead hands" NRA apologists can imagine.

So please spare me your "offer" to negotiate a solution as seen from a gun proponent's point-of-view. I'm not interested in any more NRA propaganda, or Gungeon talking points, and your side has nothing to offer but more misery and death while hiding behind the Second Amendment.
