Who are you?
I'm called the Bear and I'm a liberal gun owner. "How the hell does that happen?", you might ask yourself. It's actually pretty easy, and doesn't require any self-delusion or hypocrisy.I grew up in a small town, born into a family of hunters. I got my first rifle from my dad when I was about five years old. I shot my first deer when I was 11, after completing an NRA youth hunter safety course. I opted out of a military career and went into Information Technology.
I like guns, I own guns.
"But," you say, "what's this about you being a liberal? How does that mesh with being a gun owner and a hunter?"
I'm glad you asked!
