I came across this article which goes over one mans experince going from no guns to owning one to carrying one to spreading the enjoyment of firearms to others.

I think it is a very well written piece that can serve two purposes: if you’re already into firearms, it helps drive home the point that introducing others to firearms in a non threatening manner is the best way to strengthen the community. Someone who may not even know you own firearms but thinks you’re a good person will be more likely to give firearms a chance if you’re the one introducing them. Community is the operative word.
Second, I think the opening of the article describing this family’s reasons for getting into firearms does a great job of illustrating the valid reasons for owning their firearms. It really humanizes the firearms community which is often demonized by its opponents.
The best part is that it doesn’t get political or preachy. Figured it’s a good article that could be shown to those on the fence.
