Not everyone that doesn't lean left is a maga f*&$head. I'd consider myself a level-headed 2A advocate and I routinely go into the negatives

Good luck around here with that. Left-leaning people close their ears almost as much as right-leaning. Hard to have actual conversations

I don't consider that a priority. Improve medical access and mental health. Build a system that provides welfare. Those fix society.

From their point of view, they've been compromising since 1934. The real solution is to fix society, not sign yet another restricting law.

Shifting goalposts much? First you said it's NRA buzz, and then when I said I could provide examples, you say "it's outliers". Pick a stance

We all have priorities when reading the news. I catch the bit about 'taking them all' because it's a concern of mine. Maybe it's not for you
