Monday evening I was helping teach Rifle Shooting Merit Badge and was eating dinner with the Scoutmasters before the meeting. We were chatting about guns and they know me really well and I was on a rant about the stupidity of the whole "assault rifle" thing and one of the SMs goes "you really aren't a typical Democrat, are you?" Now, we try to keep politics out of Scouting, but inevitably it comes up with some topics, so a lot of people know where I stand. I just said "that's because I'm not a Democrat, I'm just a progressive individual."
This just made me think of that conversation.
