Because they’re smarter than you think
Why millennials are skeptical of gun control:
In spite of the prevailing attitude toward millennials in the media, where it seems we are often portrayed as somewhat unmotivated and unwilling to engage on important issues, millennials are incredibly passionate, motivated, empirically minded and data-driven. And when it comes to gun control, we have a mountain of evidence over the last half-century to show that government efforts to restrict gun ownership are utterly ineffective at achieving their stated claims: a safer society through the reduction of violent crime.
And it’s important to keep in mind the internet. Millennials have, for the most part, had it for most of their lives. And, unlike old school media, the pro gun side pretty much dominates the internet.

Some millennials are worth that hope. Some.
