That was actually what I found refreshing. While I don't agree with all of the author's chosen wording, this article is essentially the "Living My Truth" version of a pro-2A argument. 2nd Amendment supporters have for the most part stood politely by while our rights were chipped away. While we calmly offered scientific facts and evidence, these facts were completely ignored in favor of passionate arguments based solely on emotion from the other side. No matter how polite, genteel, and well-spoken a 2nd Amendment supporter may be, they will always be portrayed as crazy and violent by their opponents.
This is the first article I've seen where the author fully embraces the nonsensical, emotion-based arguments used by progressives and academics to justify everything from socialism to the idea that gender is a completely optional construct that can be changed based on nothing more than emotion. I personally think the article is ridiculous, but we currently live in a country where ridiculous arguments seem to be the ones that gain traction. Between colleges and the media, "F*** the Truth, These are My Feelings", is now seen as a perfectly valid point of view.
I don't know how much potential it has to change any minds about firearm ownership, but logical and factual studies don't seem to be doing very much either. I mainly found this to be refreshing because I already know that gun control laws cause significantly more crime than they prevent, and reading another article stating so does nothing for me. At least this article was unique.
