Yeah. Well you guys had that whole McClosky's thing. I'm west Kansas. The only real problem we have out here is the major university towns and Wichita. Even then Wichita is more level headed about it's liberalism. Most people there are logistics and/or manufacturing workers. Everyone there hates having to work 40+ hours a week and then handing it over to the government who then doesn't put it to good use. Generally the younger the person the more liberal they are and they all congregate in the major college towns. Not always but usually. It's just ranches out here. Guns are a tool for us. Out west here we get mountain lions from Colorado sometimes. Coyotes, rapid dogs and then there's small game and stuff. Gun control to us is like telling us we have to put a house frame together but you can't use a hammer or drill to do it. How easy do you think it is to put down a mountain lion with a 22lr you know? Shit. Even the most mild mannered pensioner in the city at least has a pellet gun to stop the birds and rabbits from fucking up her yard. I've seen a mother fucker chase a raccoon with a sling shot. That's just stupid liberals are on some childish Land of the Lost/ Legend of Zelda/Home Alone shit thinking they can stop a mountian lion with a sling shot.
St Louis is a liberal haven. So is KC and likewise Springfield. There's a big area in between, and we value our guns. I think Art I Section 23 MO constitution is affirmation of 2A, and we have the full Castle - out to property lines, stand your ground, and all that. We use it out here. Probably at least half the people I see in town are carrying, open or concealed. No concealed permits now, and local govt cannot override state law. Every one of my neighbors, rancher or otherwise, carries. Personally, I never leave home without, and walking around my property, I usually carry my AR-15. It's scary, ya know :)
BTW, we have a lion roaming around the area killing sheep.
