one of my dearest friends is afraid of guns. As in, she can't listen to people talk about them without getting anxious. I think its the same as my fear of roaches really. I don't talk about guns around her (I rarely talk about them anyway) and she knows I'm not going to threaten her with my gun in any way. She still can come to my house and be comfortable. No snark, no looking down on me, no terror. Its not that hard to respect people's choices AND their boundaries.
