....Joffrey?

Please show me how attacking the NRA means that Cruz is going to walk and not be punished for his crime.

Speaking of that conference:

Right after finishing my other comment, I see this on Twitter.

A lot of these people will only dig in deeper as more of this comes out because despite the sophistication of what the Russians did, the average person does not and cannot admit to being wrong or fooled.

(Paraphrasing) When you’re accustomed to gerrymandering, fairness feels like conscious pro-Dem mapping choices.

Came here for this. Not disappointed.

It’s an over-exaggeration and it’s intellectually dishonest. This is the tried-and-true favorite argument of the NRA: incrementalism. If you do one thing, all of these other things happen, so do nothing. But it is statistically proven to be false. The assault weapons ban decreased deaths by gun massacre by 47%, and as…

Did you know that due to advances in transportation it’s possible to purchase goods in one city and take them to another city that has restrictions on those goods? We used to do it all the time when I lived in Georgia and fireworks were banned - they even set up roadside shops right over the state line!

Out of curiosity, my completely rational friend - how many children would it take massacring in school for you to decide that it’s ok to put some focus on it? 17 isn’t enough. 20? 50? 100?

Oh, I know. I also know that gun deaths in Chicago are down. And that most of the guns used in Chicago come from places with more lax gun control laws. But even if this persons barely functioning racist mind thinks that facts don’t matter - how does anyone sit and type “A small number of children died” as if A) 17…

“South Side of Chicago” is white-supremacist speak for “black violence is the only violence that counts.”

Sorry I’m bigoted against evil assholes. I’m sure evil assholes the world over are devastated.

You: “It’s only 17 dead kids”.

Saying “only 17" are dead is ridiculous. Schools are supposed to be a safe place where we send our children. 17 is totally unacceptable. Also focusing on this type of violence doesn’t mean we don’t care about other types of gun deaths. Is this seriously the best argument you can make?

I’m not going to be reasonable about this.

Fresh take, bro
