Conservatives love their guns because they hate their government. Nothing stands as a greater threat to liberty than the government, as far as they are concerned. That's why it's so ironic that they love God so much. Because God is far, far more tyrannical than any government has ever been.
Think about it: if the Federal Government began requiring that people do even half of what they voluntarily chose to do for their "God" - like going to church at least once a week, shaping their sex life, policing their thoughts, threatening to burn them alive if they didn't grovel to it as "Our Father," etc etc - Conservative Christians would storm the White House faster than the Bundy Ranch standoff in 2014.
In fact, the whole reason Conservatives Christians are so in love - and I mean "IN LOVE!" - with their guns, is because they HATE HATE HATE the idea that ANYONE would EVER tell them what to do, or think, or how to live, etc.
Now, if it's God telling them what to do and think, and how to live, and to pray incessantly for 'forgiveness" for a sin they never committed (they just have to accept they are miserable sinners - period!) or be skinned alive and thrown into a vat of acid, along with their children, for failing to PRAISE their GOD at least once and week, they are only too willing to LOVE LOVE LOVE that God with all of their heart and soul, because He is such a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful God!
Hence, Conservative Christians love a "God" that is far, far, more tyrannical than any form of Gov't could ever be. In fact, God is responsible for far more genocides and murder and evil, if the Bible is to be believed, than all other governments combined.
But don't bother pointing any of that out to "people of the book," because for them, genocide committed for God and by God is always and everywhere the most moral action anyone could ever engage in. It's something to celebrate and dance around the camp fire with marshmallows about. But anyone who wants marriage equality or universal healthcare, on the other hand, should be skinned and burned alive for all eternity - and their little dogs to!
