I don't understand why the NRA is even doing this. They are masters of manipulating discourse. They must know there is no argument they can put forth that can't be shot down by 'we watched our friends die in front of us, and the gun laws on the books did nothing to stop it'.

It's gonna be awesome.

I think they 100% believe they're in the right and have public support here. That's the only explanation.

I fully expect Dana to show up with some folder full of papers and be like "Well, actually kids it turns out more people die from ALCOHOL and ROCK N ROLL than guns!"

If the Sandy Hook kids could have instad and tweeted their classmates deaths as they were happening that would have gone so differently.

I have no goddamn clue what the NRA thinks they have to gain from this. Best case scenario for them is nothing changes, worst case is this wakes a lot of people up.

Maybe they should nominally embrace it, get an influx of cash from the NRA, and spend it on the much-needed school supplies. The ole' switcheroo.

This too, but I think it's just a matter of time. Don't think of them as guns, think of them as tactical guillotines.

E: If liberals, leftists and PoC started visibly arming themselves in exactly the same way as right wing chuds and NRA nuts, there would be a huge push for gun registration and assault weapon bans. Just like the Black Panthers in the 60's.

I can only assume some of the parents had other living children so they couldn't just murder-suicide their own lives away.

Otherwise, why not? The hubby and I already agreed if something were to happen to the kids, welp, time to get addicted and then die.

Nah, all you need is some extremely brave black citizens to protest outside rich people's housing developments/NRA offices/government buildings with their AR-15's.

I mean... what if they’re right about that? I’m seeing a lot of traction online from the smear campaign against these kids.

I mean, a lot of those are bots and people online aren’t totally representative, but I’ve been a little perm-shook since 2016 and I worry sometimes.
