    There are a lot of well-meaning liberals who have been instrumental in taking guns out of the hands of… Pretty much, exclusively themselves. Most right-wing gun nuts already have their guns, they won’t be giving them up anytime soon, and the American gun culture is incomparable to most other countries. If we could start over, less guns would work, but unfortunately we can’t.

    That isn’t to say we shouldn’t enforce things like red flag laws, but other things like trying to limit high capacity magazines in liberal states is just ceding weapons to the wealthy conservatives who think they can shoot down the local Jewish space laser themselves.
