Comment on It's interesting that gun rights were sold on the basis of "resisting unlawful government." They seen to have caused unlawful government.
The result of several decades from NRA successfully screaming Dems gonna get you guns!
And dems demonizing gun ownership. Seems it worked out great for the right (er) wing.
No, it really didn’t benefit them in any meaningful way.
Widespread gun ownership has gotten an enormous number of innocent people killed though.
Well in the states yes, since it is seen as some sort of right and not a privilege that requires basic safety training. The rest of the planet seems to be more sensible.
