So?

Those so often charged as being the source of hate are not.  NRA members love their country and seek to protect the country and themselves.  There are many law-abiding people who seek to prevent crime and injustice.  These people tend to be motivated by love, not hate.  Hate's source is evil, and evil's source depends on deception.  If this could just be understood a little better, and news services return to reporting factual information, we'd all be better off.
