As opposed to the bunch of doormats that are your mainstream, non-violent (unless it comes to people that speak Arabic) liberals in the north.

Visit New Hampshire, mate. Our motto is "Live Free or Die" and you'd be hard-pressed to find a successful Democrat here that doesn't concede to a majority of gun rights. There's a reason why when you're talking politics up north and someone says that they're a Democrat, the often response is "Wait, are you a Democrat, or a New Hampshire Democrat?" (I.E. A Pro-2nd Amendment, somewhat Libertarian-leaning segment of the Democratic spectrum).

ALSO, question: Are areas allowed to be contested to an extent? As in, could there be two factions that are currently fighting over a set area, and both have partial control?
