The part that dumbfounds me is the logical pretzel that they get into over nowhere being safe so we need more guns when the reason it's not safe is there are too many nuts with guns. So instead of restricting access to guns we have to all armor up and open carry because the only answer to crazy people with guns is more guns.
Then we get people who go looking for violence vigilante style and instead of holding them to account we talk about pardons because they shot someone open carrying which is a position they support but then they have to back track to say that it was the wrong kinda guy open carrying and because he was peacefully walking in the street he deserved to be shot.
But then a woman is breaking through a window in a building she broke into gets shot by law enforcement and she's a hero even though she was violent at the time and the police officer was trying to prevent more violence against the people he was there to protect and he's a thug.
So
The answer to too many guns is more guns and open carry
But open carry peacefully in the wrong crowd and a vigilante should take you out
But a violent person breaking into a building should not be shot by law enforcement and the cop is a thug
If someone had shot Kyle Rittenhouse for open carrying and pointing his gun at people they would throw a fit
Garret Foster get's shot for open carrying and that's cool, pardon the murderer
So all this leads to shootouts in the street between people of different political bents and I think that's exactly what Russia wants and their investment in the NRA has paid off more than they could have ever dreamed.
