      Logic > emotions. He might not like it, and it might make him uncomfortable, but that's probably a conversation that he should have. Kudos for putting it out there.

        I sure as hell wouldn't defend it or try to explain it. People this dumb aren't even worth your time. Do what needs to be done and call him an idiot an move on.

        Or simply post one of those YouTube video's where people are playing christmas songs via shooting steel targets

            A statement that dumb isn't worth attempting to respond to.

              Firearms are fine pieces of engineering artwork (even Glocks). Someone who subjectively marginalizes one art in favor of another isn't a true artist.

                  that's better than any snarky wording.

                  want to bet he posts irrelevant statistics, or an anti war song

                      My guitar collection is roughly the same size as my gun collection... ~20 of each. I'd like to think I use either with above average proficiency.

                        Add this one to the list:

                        Your views on any given subject are the sum of the media that you take in, scaled to the weight of the credibility of the source that provides it, seen through a lens of your own values, goals, and achievements.

                        You Are All Ambassadors, Whether You Like It Or Not

                        Pain is the hardest lesson to forget; Ego is the anesthesia that deadens the pain of stupidity.

                        Bureaucracy is the epoxy that lubricates the gears of progress.

                          Instead of just blowing the guy off, help him understand. People and life in general are multi faceted. I enjoy my guns but I also love my music and I play the Native American flute.

                          I believe David Crosby, arguably a poster child for the hippy generation and blessed with one of the finest voices in music, likes guns and fast cars as well.

                          Find examples of musicians and artists who like guns as well and point them out to him and start him thinking.

                          One can be anti-violence and still embrace guns. 'Seems like a serious contradiction but it's not.

                          I believe there's a great quote by the Dali Lama.
                          Let us not pray to be sheltered from dangers but to be fearless when facing them. - Rabindranath Tagore

                          A mind all logic is like a knife all blade. It makes the hand bleed that uses it. - Rabindranath Tagore

                          Talent hits a target no one else can hit. Genius hits a target no one else can see. - Arthur Schopenhaur

                            Artistry in music, artistry in guns (funtionality, fit, and mechanics).

                            What's not to love.

                            I think he's cofusing being a musician with being a leftist douchebag. I have plenty of musician friends that like guns too. At least two are certified firearms instructors.

                            And a few that are like the author...well you know.
