So, here’s something that the liberal media will never aggressively pursue:  a liberal Democrat, who is pro-gun.  Why? It ruins their narrative that all gun-owners are right-wing zealots.

But the Atlantic has an excellent interview with Dan Baum, former staff writer for the New Yorker, in which he detailed his road trip across America to give a first-hand account of these rational and responsible Americans, who are vilified by the progressive left and Beltway liberals.

Granted, I don’t agree with everything he says, but the interview, which was conducted by freelance writer Hope Reese, had four great points.
