    Jahana Hayes, a leader on the gun violence prevention task force, shouting: “Pass some gun laws!”

    Context and all, but, really? You want a majority Republican government body, inhabited by neofascist nazi-in-all-but-self-declaration death-cultist hyper-authoritarians . . .to. . . pass. gun. laws‽

    You want those people…who turned the second amendment into a fetish subculture, pardon murderers loyal to the party, and punish activists and immigrants with zero due process by throwing them into vans and imprisoning them in death camps…

    …to decide who is allowed to defend themselves? Once again the DNC on average has proven to be ridiculously out of touch.

    Times have changed, and guns aren’t just some debate point you can kick back and forth for political points anymore. The threat of armed opposition very well might be required to safeguard future life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, especially if this party can’t get their shit together. FAST.

    Want to prevent gun violence? Stop jackboot stomping Americans by allowing their governments, their insurance, their bosses, their cops, their landlords, and corporations, to push them to the brink of such despair and desperation that murder starts to sound like the only way to be heard and respected.

    But such policies would piss off your biggest donors, wouldn’t it?
