Disagreement is inevitable, but some people have forgotten that we're all on the same side.

Pretending to be the good guys while they talk smack and engage in underhanded campaigns isn't the same as being without blame in this whole mess. People harp on and on about how so and so is trying to accomplish something and do good for us, and that if someone happens to disagree with their methods or their premise (or have even simple questions), that they might as well be working for the other side. Then they fail to make the connection between that and why their calls for "let's work together" (which really mean, 'hey you, stupid, come over here and do things our way and we'll be together') fall on mostly deaf ears.
Cheerleading sucks no matter whose pom-poms you're waving. Personally, the only thing that I'm more sick of than the constant garbage coming out of many so-called pro-gun groups or individuals are the tireless sycophants that cling to them and whirl themselves about as emissaries for the one true path.
