    You’ll have to do it with work. No magic bullet on this one. I own zero firearms but I’m a staunch advocate for 2a and our right to self defense.

    A lot of people don’t have well thought out reasoning, but it’s cultural. I’m not saying they don’t think about it so much as they never thought to, because they don’t see those problems in their communities. They’ve been around firearms their whole life. When you go to a farm on a shooting day the old timers find the noobs and gently correct them. Problems get sorted quickly from those group experiences.

    So, you have to ask questions to sort out where they stand and to break down their ideas into something more concrete. You have to kinda neutrally get them to put thought into how they came to the ideas they have.
