Indeed. Part of being an effective advocate involves correctly assessing the object of the advocacy. If one assumes that everyone who asks a question is immovably hostile to Second Amendment rights, he may miss a genuine opportunity.
One downside of having the same argument over and over again is that one may become inattentive and listen insufficiently, simply assuming that one is responding to the same argument he heard the last hundred times. Fairly responding to the argument made or question posed is more productive.
