    I wouldn’t say gun ownership is their main issue. It’s the pervasive stupidity. Never met a group with so many stupid people before.

      It’s not stupidity, it’s ignorance. The difference is stupid can learn, it just takes a lot of patience. Ignorance doesn’t want to learn.

      Oh agree. Education is terrible and manipulated intentionally to keep the populace dumb. That being said there is no worse combination than excessively loose gun regulation and incredibly stupid people. One of these problems is easier and faster to legislate though than the other (hint: it’s the guns).

      Its pretty incredible here. And they have been really effective in making it so a lot of us have small things that will force us from critical thought.
