To be a big wet liberal lefty (I think, not American, so guessing on political positions), not everyone needs a gun to feel manly?

You've just followed the wiki link and looked at the media section. To quote:

Is that fair though? To use the cheaty example, and the one they mentioned above, would you say the Lord of the Rings wasn't 'mature'?
