[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of regular Republican and Republican-leaning voters are in favor of some gun control measures. Not as many as Democrats but there’s less daylight there than you might think. They, too, have kids in school, they go to parties and events, they worry about their safety just as much. The politicians and the conservative judiciary are way out of step with the voters on the gun control issue and it’s becoming a huge problem. [/quote]

No there is no daylight between the republican base and leadership on guns. That is the media spin. Republicans, conservatives and specially libertarians love the gun culture, gun violence and want more guns on the street.

Why do you think people vote republicans? [/quote]

[b]Nobody loves senseless violence. Stop being inflammatory.[/b]  Just because someone doesn’t agree with your preferred policy response to a problem doesn’t mean that someone loves the outcome of the problem. Anti-prohibitionists don’t love alcohol-related deaths. Pro-choice people don’t love the need for millions of abortions. Anti-immigration enforcement advocates don’t love what is happening at the border or in our cities. Criminal Justice reform advocates don’t love the spike in crime.  It’s a disagreement between two sides.

I graduated from high school in 1999. That was the year of Columbine. While it wasn’t the first school shooting, in part because of the video footage, it shocked us the most until Sandy Hook came along. Guns are a major problem, but they aren’t the only problem here. Clearly we have a bankrupt culture producing alienated individuals.  Nobody has done anything to address that culture over nearly 25 years since Columbine.  This tribalism and demonization of political opponents has led to the stalemate in the issue. I’m not finding the right words here, but Megyn Kelly had some tweets on the topic last night.

Lol oh let’s not make the republicans and conservatives full throated support of gunning down children inflammatory. Someone might just call you in your bullsh#t. It’s people like you who make sure Columbine was followed Sandy Hook with Alex Jones.

You are totally wrong and purposefully so. The only one with a “bankrupt” culture is you. There are no two side. The demonization is on one side. You are parroting right wing talking point. Go back to your Steve Bannon and Alex Jones podcast. [/quote]
