... not about gun control.
That is, if you are smart and want to attact the allies to defeat this growing racist moment.
If you want to see this moment disipate like 100 others in the last 3 years, we will make the goal gun control.
And I say this as someone who was friends with Gabby Gifford before the shooting and has worked for common sense gun regulations.
It's about reading the room and recognizing the urgency of the matter at hand.
The Republican party needs to be held accountable for their embrace of Trump, white supremacists, and stochastic Terrorism.
Everything else should take a rhetorical back seat and let this larger battle be our focus.

whatever basis is used to divide us from each other, we must resist it.
making anyone an other is the first step in their death.
this is a strain throughout ALL human history.
it really is at the core of the conflict between self and society.
we must evolve beyond it.
or the planet dies.
