if someone says "you cant even own guns in canada" or "i think assault rifles are bad" chances are they just have no idea about the laws or how guns work and just go on what our media tells them. those people can usually be educated and slowly coaxed into eventually coming on a range trip with you
if someone says "i dont want us to be those maga cultists who fetishes guns to make mens penises feel bigger" then no you arent going to change their mind and they are happy to wallow in their ignorance.
also politically speaking the former group tends to be the swing voters in suburban ridings that decide elections while the latter group is the staunch diehard liberal/NDP voters and arent swinging anything for anyone.
