And.... Oh my, this follow-up! Look at these utterly unsurprising names:

PabloNeruda is a troll trying to mock over the top commenters with posts that devolve into parody. He thinks that “I’m pretending to be a dumb liberal” means he’s not actually stupid.

Trump’s solution to school shootings: arm teachers with guns

He is a troll making bad-faith accusations to stir up trouble. Look at his history.

Don’t pull the trolls out of the greys.

So you waltzed out of the aether to post something that is factually incorrect (Parkland meets the definition of terrorism to most experts, even given the debate over the precise parameters of the term) and to not only arrogantly lecture me once but now twice, presuming I know nothing about the field I’m discussing?

Seriously? Your response to all of that is to presume I don’t know the bloody definition of the word even as I’m talking about CT policy with clearly enough familiarity that I can’t be completely ignorant of the field.

That’s a reasonable assessment, IMHO. With that in mind, I’d like to update my previous comment:

Sacrificing bump stocks (and probably some specific variant of bump stock, not to even mention the 3 or 4 other ways to bump fire a gun with some goofy retrofit or accessory) is absolutely what the NRA/GOP is going to do to shut up the current conversation and god damn it it’s going to fool a lot of people into…

Oh look, the abusive prick is here for more harassment.

No, you’re just an abusive piece of shit. That slur based in mental health proves you deserve only the contempt of anyone decent.

When one side advocates for a position that actively leads to more people being killed for no discernible benefit, it’s hard to argue that the tone of the debate is the problem.

Honest question:

Were you not a suitable candidate for penile enlargement surgery?

You sound like a real piece of shit, you know that?

It’s worth noting that Stephen Feinberg just CEO’d Remington into chapter 11 bankruptcy.

I’m pretty sure Bret Stephens permanently keeps a copy of Dinesh D’souza’s “masterpiece” Liberal Fascism on his bedside table.

Your Deadspin colleague David Roth is on the case (concerning Mr. Stevens):

This story got very little coverage, probably because if they don’t have a Muslim name Americans and the media don’t seem to care. Even though the FBI reports 94% of terrorism in the US is by non-Muslims.

I’m no expert, but when people talk about western civilization I think of it both as a relic of cold war politics and code words for white christian civilization.
