"If you're trying to change minds and influence people it's probably not a good idea to say that virtually all elected Democrats are liars, but what the hell."
Well, this is by definition either untrue or a distraction, since it's unreported by the mainstream media. And unhelpful, don'tcha know. Really, intentions were good. Couldn't be helped. Oh, look, a shiny object!
We need to be very careful what we wish for in the coming battles over increased gun control. Republicans seem to be advocating two options: allowing teachers to arm themselves (or providing armed guards), and identifying mentally unstable people so as to limit their access to firearms.
I'm totally on board with the first option--I think that is the best way to deal with the problem. As for option 2, do we really want to give the federal government the power to decide who is mentally unstable and thereby prohibited from owning firearms?
Since 0babmcare is now the law of the land, the federal government controls both the doctors who diagnose you as well as the criteria by which you would be diagnosed. And that's a recipe for disaster.
The violent deaths of a few brown people mean nothing to the Demos if it does not further their political purposes.
