It's a fascinating thing to hold up, given the gravity of the gun issue America faces.
But hey, if you gotta slap them where it hurts... you go right on slapping!
No reason to address this before addressing the second amendment.

When Chuck Schumer is on tape threatening members of the Supreme Court, including Kavanaugh, of course no legislation is going to happen. When is Chucky going to be brought in for his threats?

Welcome back Charlie Brown

Or he’s a better troll than Brandon?

A possibility I had not considered! :oops:

Charlie Brown was a bit of a loser but at least he was a decent guy! ;)

Nah. B-bullshitter is CB minus the nice guy part. He keeps siding with the likes of Trump and Trump keeps pulling the ball from him. Lucy gets away with it time after time because Charlie is a dim bulb

Also Schadenfreude. (Wiki)

"the experience of pleasure, joy, or self-satisfaction that comes from learning of or witnessing the troubles, failures, or humiliation of another"

The real bad guys that actually should need more security in this case are Mitch McConnell and those folks over at the Heritage Foundation and Federalist Society who pick among those corrupted servile stooges they'd like to see on the bench.

Kevin McCarthy so worried about his people while school children get mowed down in school.
McCarthy Yells On House Floor, Demands Passage of Bill to Protect Families of Supreme Court Justices: ‘How Many Times Do They Have to Be Threatened!’ (msn.com)

Replace "bill to protect families of SCOTUS justices"

with "bill to protect our school children"

We know where GOP priorities lie. Since they claim more guns are safer let the justices buy them. Meanwhile get gun safety legislation passed so kids can be safe in school.


Or another idea
If Dems had balls, the House would create a bill to protect their families but add an assault rifle ban as an amendment. Just let Republicans vote no

It really does encapsulate the George Carlin rant pretty well. The unborn need protection with full force of the law, as well as the wealthy elite.
The children of commoners? Meh, the commoners will have no choice but to produce more fodder to appease the Blood Gun God. More blood guns for the gun god!

Another example of how the Repubs along with their super majority in the USSC are denying the majority of the nation their demands for safer and more secure handling of the distribution, ownership and the responsibility and accountability that comes with possessing firearms.

The scary slippery slope boogey man always seems to rear its ugly head whenever the merest hint of holding gun owners more responsible and accountable for their firearms sees the light of day.

The GOP can dish it out, but they can't take it.

P&N neve fails to amuse me. So many of you shout about how much better you are than those stupid dirty hateful republican, and fail to realize you're exactly the same.

It has been [ 0 ] minutes since a conservative used bothsides, with all the typical lack of self-awareness that goes with such a statement.

And it's been just about the same amount of time since a myopic liberal announced the stunning depth of his vision.

Republicans are horrible, scum people, though. And, it is absolutely a choice that they have made to be this way.

You know that, right? This is a natural law, as sure as gravity and evolution. I'm not sure what you are getting at.
