What it boils down to is that people who are interested in guns can't be prevailed upon to care about gun crime or reasonable legislation to stem the tide of stupid, needless slaughter because people who aren't interested in guns never seem to use the magic words.

Extrapolating that we "can't be bothered to care" is a huge jump from "we aren't fond of trying to debate with people who can't be bothered to be knowledgeable about the subject matter and seem only to have the worst of intentions where 'we the people who don't commit gun violence and are therefore not part of the problem' are concerned.

I personally will be glad when anti-gun folks decide to try thinking outside the box, and actually accomplish something other than harassing the people that aren't the problem to begin with.
