The cartoon expresses the fear of many gun owners. Mr. LaPierre, no matter what you think of his opinion and/or organization, is guilty of no crimes and the image of a law abiding gun owner being arrested for owning a gun or expressing an opinion in support of gun ownership feeds the extreme partisans who believe they need to have some of the guns being discussed to protect themselves from law enforcement and, according to some, the military itself.The cartoon isn’t helpful and feeds extremists on both sides of the argument, making it hard for people to talk about compromise.Respectfully,C.
