This argument is nonsense pushed forward by the gun industry to try and get leftists on their side.

I was speaking from my own experience, that didn't come from any industry or organization. If it did I would've said something like "we need fewer gun restrictions!!" I'm speaking personally and sharing my experiences as an activist. It's what made me start to carry for me and my peers safety based off what I have previously told you. Because I also believe that my queer friend wouldnt still be here if not for her firearm.

But I absolutely protest for greater gun restrictions and want to actually allow the CDC to investigate gun violence. Because, yes, the CDC isn't allowed to.

It's worth drawing the distinction between 'if guns are allowed, activists should consider carrying' vs 'guns should be allowed so that activists can carry'.

The former I agree with, the latter I think is nonsense.
