Guns urban vs urban?

Like we needed another gun thread.

I'm not sure if I see a trend here or not. Is most of the pro/anti gun rhetoric coming out of the densely populated areas? As an acknowleged bumkin, I just don't feel the passion that lots of folks seem to on the 2nd amendment fight. Looking at myself and my fellow hillbillies, I'd say that its because there is zero chance of disarming rural America. Pass the law, it won't happen. I don't see guns mainly as the conceal carry self-protection issue as urban pro-gunners do. Guns are to put down deer injured on the road, shoot the rabid fox, keep the possum out of the hen house, put meat in the freezer, and for the extremely unlikely home defense scenario. I just see gun confiscation as a silly unworkable thing city folk talk about doing. Is it really just urban vs urban?
