Gun Crazy in Lansford

I like to canvass Lansford.  The houses are close together, and the people are invariably friendly and pleasant.  Today, however, I ran into a guy registered as a Democrat who said, “I always vote Republican and have for years.”  I asked him why, and he said, “I don’t trust Democrats; they want to take away our guns.”  

Of course I tried to set him straight, but nothing doing.  This man is being manipulated by the N.R.A. and Republican propaganda, but he has bought into it completely.  It is so discouraging.

On the other hand, he was reasonably friendly and pleasant.  Just not real bright.
