    To have mass shootings or responsible gun control?

    Besides the fact that gun control wouldn’t eliminate all mass shootings, it’s readily apparent that gun control is an issue that Dems make just enough political theater out of to keep the donations rolling in but don’t actually put any political capital on the line to make a reality, except in deep blue states.

    Do you want your Saturday night entertainment to be mandatory attendance at this week’s book burning?

    Ugh, this kind of hyperbole backfires, because if you propose that the opposition is going to do something so far beyond what they’ve actually put on the table, it makes voters cynical that you’re just fearmongering.
