It’s not a matter of causation. It’s something they can point to and say “see how tough we are”.

Oh, so now you’re a “scientist”, as well? How convenient for you.
Libertarians in america vote republican. They have no problem with fascists as long as they are oppressing leftists.
I skimmed the article and am still unsure why you posted it. If Jez was ever really feminist, it hasn’t been for a while, now.
What’s really funny is that you think Jezebel is a feminist website.
Gizmedia in general has some of the worst, most persistent and pernicious ads I’ve ever seen.
All true, sadly.
Bingo. And lest we forget, fascists have been infiltrating the military and police forces for over a decade at this point...
Holy shit. I had to go back and make sure he actually said that. What a Freudian slip...
Heavy cocaine use produces lesions in the same areas of the brain as amphetamine. So it’s possible there’s a cocaine analog to “amphetamine psychosis”.
Not cooperating with the review into decisions and protocols that led to this massive failure will only prolong the enviable disclosure of facts.

I’m sorry I can’t reply directly to your post - kinja has massively devolved. Like I said, this is besides the point and a massive time-sink to discuss, but it might help to think about why this is the case, both in the historical sense and also present day factors (think about how conservative both major parties are…

Nooo.... No. Well...
Unfortunately that’s a non-starter in large areas of the country, including among left-leaning independents and democrats who own guns. Furthermore, it just reinforces the idea that everything republicans say about democrats is true. It also becomes a target issue that can be used as a distraction to derail…
The thing is, republican and NRA propaganda has been so successful that whenever the subject of guns comes up, gun-owners will automatically reference the notion that democrats are coming for their guns. It’s a purely Pavlovian-conditioned response at this point - no thinking necessary.
Your girlfriend killed a snake who was just minding its own business, probably eating things you don’t want in your garden (or house), just because it was there, rather than, you know, just moving it somewhere else? And you’re okay with that because you “don’t like snakes”? What the fuck is wrong with you?
