    I like how your comment is the perfect example of the behavior that you claim to oppose. You’re cutting into the left while identifying yourself as left, and everything you wrote was destructive. Congratulations?

    There are several reasonable positions that a person could take on this issue. You could point out the entertainment in increased calls for gun regulation. You could point out the consistency with saying that you’re going to arm yourself as long as guns are legal, but also be in favor of increased gun regulation. You could point out that there are different factions within the Democratic party and on the left in general, and how people all have their own varying agendas. You could encourage a general strategy for Democrats and Democrat supporters to get along. But you did none of that, because you didn’t care. And I don’t mind if you care, but I want other people to see it, just in case they do.

      The dude is trying to give some necessary criticism, but apparently everyone is immune to that.

      Criticism is not destruction, unless you are okay with the current status quo

      Keep forming that circular firing squad.

      I’m going to slip out and duck down over here to eat some popcorn.

        Nah man, people in here are not open to criticism unless it’s “the way they like it” which is none criticism at all.

        Just blame the Latino voters and move on

      Or you could understand that “gun ownership” and “gun regulation” are not incompatible concepts, despite NRA/Russian propaganda to the contrary.
