Just a reminder that those who seek to disarm you are not your friends.

    Not defending Grisham here, but it is really odd to see the party of “protect the children” to constantly be doing everything in their power to allow children to get shot.

    A good example of “The Slippery Slope Fallacy”.

      Also known as “basic pattern recognition” and also, the democrats are pretty explicit about guns.

          Wtf are you talking about? 1934 was the first major federal gun control law, and there was a lot to say back then. Even if you just mean recently, there was the AWB.

            As in everyone was in agreement that gun control regulations were perfectly constitutional under the 2A until 2008.

    You know why I hate reading conservative news? Because if I wanted to read a fiction, I could do literally anything else with fiction and be happier for it.

    The argument is in the first paragraph:

    • MLG unilaterally suspended the 2nd Amendment
    • Nothing stopped her from doing it. (this bit is implied)
    • Therefore, nothing will stop MLG and her defenders from suspending all the amendments.

    So, the articles just takes that stupid argument and runs with it

    Does that include the Nineteenth Amendment giving women the right to vote?

    How about the Thirteenth Amendment that abolished slavery?

    The logical implication is that MLG and her defenders will reinstitute slavery and suspend women’s suffrage.

    Be afraid! Your country is under attack!

    Except the local sheriff said he wouldn’t enforce it, a Senator implied he didn’t support it. That is, the implied premise is violated, and therefore, the conclusion, on which the rest of the article is based, doesn’t follow. But it’s asserted like it is, and is pure fiction and removed from reality.

    To the lefties, remember that Marx said " Under no pretext should arms and ammunition be surrendered; any attempt to disarm the workers must be frustrated, by force if necessary"

      You do realize that not all leftists follow Marx, right?

        And that a lot of those who do don’t agree with him on everything no matter how little sense it makes in civilized 21st century society?

        That’s more of an American Conservative kind of relationship with their leaders.

      That is probably the most irrelevant point I have read today. Are you that dumb to think that all people that aren’t you have the same ideology?
