Why not just something really simple, like a "free American citizen", free to believe, free to chose, free to argue, free to protest, free to express, free to travel, free to vote, free to own a gun, or free not to own a gun.
This debate is not about preventing crime, its about retaining or letting go of our freedom. The liberal social engineers have sewn a seed of confusion into the American mind through their massive media propaganda machine. Their means justify their intended ends. Lies, deception, fabrications, false polls, repetition, all work to condition our thinking on various subjects, especially about guns and the "gun culture".
When I tell people I scuba dive with sharks, they say I am nuts, and that they could never do that. But their experience is limited to fictional motion pictures or documentaries where videographers put bloody chum in the water inducing the sharks to become aggressive. Some are even afraid to swim in the ocean because of this media induced fear. My own personal intimate close encounters with sharks have proven them to be curious predators who stay outside of their own comfort zone with divers (unless there's fish being hand fed to them). I believe folks who haven't grown up with guns or who have never owned one, and who's only experience with them is through their TV sets, have similar prejudices as with the shark analogy.
But how does someone who hasn't experienced the "truth" shed those fears and prejudices to find out for themselves? Try turning off the TV, go take a gun safety class, or go look at and handle firearms at a local gun shop, check out their range, go watch a skeet competition, or go to a local gun show. See it first hand. I'd bet that if those who have negative impressions, fears, or prejudices about guns before hand, will have a pleasant awakening when they find out the truth. And bring a friend, share the experience.
