Democrats have guns. They just don’t worship their guns, display them like phallic symbols, or make a big deal of having them like conservative nutsos do. So there’s a ridiculous stereotype that Democrats don’t have guns and want to take guns away that conservative nutsos use to terrify their base into voting against responsible gun ownership laws.

Miez has helped me to get through the day. Please give another scritch for me.

Edit: It’s also in the original post, I just noticed. Not used to Lemmy yet. And I’m treating the first part of your post as being as flippant as I tend to be. If you meant it, please let me know so I can swat you with the clue-by-four.

You know, I wrote it kind as a flippant comment, not expecting anyone to pay attention (because, really, who pays attention to me?) and suddenly it’s all over the place.

Anyway, I already responded to a lot of people who commented on the original post. I eventually had to mute it due to too much traffic. So if you want to see more, go look at what people were telling me over there. I don’t disagree with most of it, and I think having a good discussion on the subject of this is probably a good thing.

Sounds like a contradiction in terms to me.
