The haters of guns are the makers and facilitators of genocide -- or on the retail scale, murder and other savagery. The sacred principle of self-defense, which is inalienable, must in consequence of its sacredness never be messed with. Prohibiting it makes genocide possible -- and it's the most efficient way to make genocide possible.
A good many people do stay ignorant of the gun-control/genocide connection, though. Yet it's hardly a secret.
A decent man is offended by genocides or pogroms. These become impossible once their targets are armed.
Now really, given all the above, where's the huge giant problem with seeing as clearly as I do? Why wouldn't you? -- for I know that this is an act of will,
not to see this as I do.

Expecting everyone to see it as you do, and viewing them as lesser if they don't, only serves to make you look like the fool.

Perhaps to the aberrant, and the genocide lovers. Not to the people of depth and wisdom, whom I do esteem, and who are not fools.
They get that murder and genocide are icky. By comparison, your own private AK looks positively angelic.

I will never ever order a pizza with you. I am sure that my hate of mushrooms will be met with disdain, disbelief, and disgust...and will result in receiving a pizza with mushrooms because you are right and I am just stupid to hate mushrooms. You'll tell me to pick them off, but I will know that the scent and taste and general essence of mushrooms linger long after I've flicked the offending fungus at your face.

Mind if I call you a dreadful, anti-hobbit philistine, then?
[Given my untrammeled druthers, I like sausage plus black olives and mushrooms on pizza.]
There may be no accounting for taste, but there
is an accounting for resisting crime and genocide, which are evils. That's where the gun lovers are better than those unenlightened gun haters. That is where the gun lovers look so much farther ahead than the gun haters. This is what improves the gun lovers so much over the gun haters.
I'll bet you never even thought of any of this.
