      People who play team politics and pin their identity to certain keystone interests have to bring up their team preferences.

      Sure, the Liberals have a misguided and hamfisted approach to gun law. Beliefs that guns are not relevant as a collective risk and opportunity, and that property rights reign over collective safety, are suppressing facts for identity politics.

      In Canada we have a lot of long guns. I strongly support responsible hunting weapons. I don’t get choked up about the government mishandling regulation of assault and handguns, just annoyed. You can see this divide in a lot of rod and gun clubs (maybe more so in my local “god and run” club because it’s progressive rural).
