Turning to the good side
Publicola links to this story of an anti-gun woman who becomes pro-gun:
I’m not sure which is more embarrassing – the ignorance I displayed in my previous attitude, or the speed at which I was convinced how wrong I was by someone I barely knew. Oh, I tried to put up a fight with the person who started all of this, but I found out quickly how truly unarmed I was. I found nothing on the Internet to support my arguments, and everything to support his.
Now, don’t get me wrong. I tried to bluff my way through the debates, but I realized I was doomed when it wasn’t long before all I had left was “well, I’m against guns because, um, because, well, I just am!”
So, eventually I grudgingly admitted hell had indeed frozen over, and I was wrong.
