Charlotte Clymer is the top PR hack at the Human Rights Campaign. (Also now a media darling and popular guest).

Yesterday she didn't like the Jacksonville gamer shooting. So she tweeted how loose and terrible Florida gun laws are.
It took two solid minutes of scrolling down through the many, many responses by her fans and followers to find even ONE tweet pointing out that the shooter was from Baltimore, Maryland, and that that city and state have some of the strictest gun laws in the country (the shooter brought the gun with him to the convention).
And what was the response to that sane tweet?? Crickets. Not one response. All of her followers just LOVED her original tweet and basically said, "Hell yeah, Charlotte!! Get Florida! The NRA sucks!!" That kind of stuff.

We are absolutely doomed. Basic sanity and the ability to form coherent thinking have left the building, for the vast majority of Americans. People are just crazy. No way do we survive that sad fact.

You'll be fine, no one is coming for your guns.

VITAL TO DISARM
=\=\=\=\=\=\=
You can never have an efficient totalitarian police state, when it has to be “benevolent” and fearful of millions of armed citizens. And you can’t disarm millions of armed citizens when they won’t tell you where the arms are. And you can’t arrest them until you criminalize their disobedience to “reasonable” gun restrictions and “common sense” registration. And you can’t tolerate their belief that they have an “endowed right” to self defense against tyranny, that supersedes your political power of the bigger gun.

The truth died, or at least took a major body blow, on January 19, 2017...the day a crackpot conspiracy theorist took the oath of office of the Presidency to the U.S.A.

Yes, the Jacksonville shooter purchased his guns legally in Baltimore, Maryland. Perhaps that means even in the strictest regulated places in the U.S.....it is too damn easy to get a gun. At a minimum, we shouldn't expect gun control laws to stop every shooting. Just as every seatbelt won't prevent all deaths in auto accidents. That does NOT mean we give up on car safety, etc.

Liberals are suspiciously quick to tell you they're not coming for your guns. That means they are.

So you NRA supporters are in favor of allowing mentally ill people to buy guns, have I got that right?
