Capitalism.
It takes a good guy with a gun to protect someone from a bad guy with a gun.
It takes money to hire the good guy and somebody else might have hired the bad guy.
Now everybody buy more guns.
Happiness is a warm gun.
Bang bang, shoot shoot.

I’m sure they collected plenty in contributions from the NRA over the years to offset these expenses. But I wonder if they will be so damned opposed the background checks now.

Fortunately they are all independently wealthy, so they can afford to protect themselves from the salt-of-the-earth-God-fearing constituents that they spend years nurturing in the ways of violence and ignorance.

well I guess, for many of them, they have risen to prominence and have built a base of support that is dependent upon continuing to be fed toxic demagoguery & bile infused rantings …
It is like they gained their fame by performing raunchy political “porn”
… and they know they will totally lose their following if they now decide to put their clothes on and behave!

Indeed. It’s not exactly a new technique.
Well, no good deed goes unpunished, as they say.
My winger friends were up early with dark mutterings of “false flag” mass shootings. These always proliferate, you see, when gun safety measures are in the news. The gummint is behind these shootings to push their agenda…smfh.

Perhaps they could offer their services to call the victims…errr…alleged victims’ families and explain that it wasn’t real.
People like that really make me wish my pup Cipher was still with us - and I could point, then tell him Fuss! "Cipher! Halt politie, Stellen!! It’s an impressive sight when a Belgian Malinois sinks his teeth into a tender body part and spins the subject to the ground.

Are they? I hope so, but I am cynical enough to believe it’s another RW grift. RW grifters will get you coming and going. When one starts with a low information authoritarian follower, the con - whatever it may be - is easy.

And he learned his lesson real fucking fast, didn’t he?
I grant you that this is sad, but it’s sadly not anything new. Ask any Native American, if you can find some, how the United States deals with people they consider a threat.

Maybe it should be “Ol’ Yeller Republican”?
By “rural America”, you don’t mean the pieces of shit that bullied me through K12 for being too smart, right?
They were pretty clear and it wasn’t 'cause I didn’t prefer Hank Williams Jr.
