(23,156 posts)the gun apologists simply don't care who gets killed by guns, not even their own loved ones.
We hear all these pious statements about "responsible" gun owners, and a lot of hand-wringing and moments of silence when various gun tragedies are made public.
But actually do something about guns? Oh, my lord no! Apparently gun rights completely overshadow anyone else's right to remain alive, or unharmed. And I have zero respect for that attitude.
Those murdered and maimed by guns didn't get due process. And even if every single gun in this country were confiscated next week, there'd still be plenty of due process left.
So go ahead and defend the guns. Just think real hard about those you care about getting on the wrong side of a gun some day.
