Hollywood Liberal: NRA Might Be A Terrorist Organization :: 07/04/2017

I hate to admit it, but the talks of a so-called truce, or a toning down of the political rhetoric, by our members of Congress was crap. We all knew it. C’mon—you’ve had to see this lie coming a mile away. We have two separate parties that have deep, systemic divisions on how government should be run and it’s associated issues, free speech, gun rights, health care etc., so a truce on the rhetoric was never going to happen. Just like it didn’t happen after Rep. Gabby Giffords (D-AZ) was shot. Even as House Majority Whip Steve Scalise (R-LA) fought for his life, liberals were more or less saying he deserved it because he had the voting record of a conservative Republican.

Let's be honest about America's obsession with guns: They're fun :: 07/03/2017

There is a reason why America has about as many guns as people, and it's not because millions are terrified of a home invasion or fear drug gangs crossing the Rio Grande. It is a reason "anti-gunners" seldom acknowledge, but it helps explain the rejection of seemingly reasonable firearm safety laws.
