So I may be getting the chance to have lunch with the representative of the 10th district. Any ideas on how i can influence him away from typical democrat BS about there being a gun violence epidemic?
Also open to other topics to discus at the lunch.

I think 'statistics' may be wasted time.
If you show ever decreasing gun violence, the response can be, "SO!! All the new, ever more restrictive laws, are working!"

Ask him why he's supporting impeachment of the sitting President of the United States, who was duly elected, when all Mueller's investigation has shown is lying, corrupt government officials in the FBI.

Suggest something everyone can agree on. Like mandatory sentences, no plea deals for crimes committed with a gun. That’s on top of the sentence for the crime committed.

Ask him why we have a second amendment? Seriously, I think it is massively misunderstood. Be clear that there is no mention of sporting and hunting, if you can compromise on some of the bill of rights they are all doomed, the definition of infringement has not changed since it was written and only one amendment spells it out.
You probably won’t be invited back though.

Ask him what he thinks about the current leadership of his party. How good is he with the Sawant's, Pelosi's, Jayapal's of his party? Aren't they the true face you all have been trying to hide for the last 30 years? Ask him if he supports Obamacare and if he does why he thinks it's such a grand idea when it obviously hasn't worked so well in Canada, Britain, and just about every other country? Does he support lowering taxes and reducing the American debt? If not why is he continuing to mortgage his kids future. If he is, why is he not then supporting doing just that. All of which leads to the why do you support more gun laws? How has 594 done anything other than increase and infringe on the rights of the law abiding in the name of so called safety, when in fact it and so many of the laws passed and proposed do very little to absolutely nothing to prevent or correct the root cause? And with that why do we continue to hear of hardened criminals still have access to guns? Doesn't seem like those laws that make it more difficult on the law abiding has done a thing to reduce crime.

Ask him how he supports our troops when sleeps under a roof and in a warm bed when so many veterans sleep out on the streets on the cold ground?
