11. And how many times have DU Gun Enthusiasts griped about "emotionalism"?

Countless times. This is the truly dark underside of the gun militancy movement: victims of gun-related violence just don't count for much. On a typical thread involving a gun massacre, the Enthusiasts concentrate on the make and model of the weapons used, and gripe about the media incorrectly describing intricate details of said weapons, and that's it---nothing in the way of sympathy for the victims and their families. I often wonder what sort of homes our resident Gun Enthusiasts were raised in; I believe they are missing vital segments of their personalities, and the guns they own obviously offer nothing in the way of restorative power.
