So you pick two people, one moderate and one extreme, and pretend they're representative?

Most people's opinions on this stuff is somewhere in the middle (i.e. there should be some regulations on guns but some private gun ownership should be allowed). There are extremists on both sides. On one side it manifests as "ban them all" and on the other side it's "no regulation whatsoever".

In the US. I don't think I have ever met someone in Europe who was against gun control.

Ah, but I'm picking two leading advocates for their respective positions.
