Why is it OK for gun nuts to be single-issue voters (as MILLIONS of them are) - but it's apparently not okay for people who are sick of the killing to become single issue voters? If you were born on the day Columbine happened then you're in your mid 20s now, and the only thing that has changed about guns in your entire life is that now there's way more of them, they're more easily available, more powerful and the NRA owns the GOP ever more completely. Why is that not worth being a single issue voter?

??
It's your right to be a single-issue voter, but it means your life is pretty worthless if all of your self-interests can be encapsulated by one issue.

It was a pretty awesome speech. The dudes an actor, but its not hard to believe his tears were real when he was saying stuff like a girl had to be identified by her green shoes since her head had been decapitated
I'm not cynical enough to say he didn't mean any of it, but the whole thing was very much about him. If you objectively watch his speech it's a series of emotional appeals, it's not a revelation that what happened was awful, and then he wrapped it all up without a single policy suggestion. Well, he did tell the GOP to just vote for whatever the DNC proposes, but that's somewhat open ended with what that may or may not mean.

“the US and Nato allies continue their happy fun time picnic in Yugoslavia, frolicking in alpine meadows and holding hands with the local populace.”

so 100 percent accurate
I've never met a former Yugoslavian who didn't love them some Tito. I don't really understand it, tbh.

No. He gave specific examples of gun legislation that the majority of Americans already support

He then asked the GOP to stop being assholes and do it.

Such as?



"The country is divided, and it's your fault." I really thought it was a classy touch.
It doesn't matter. His speech wasn't meant for you since you are in the minority who doesn't agree with what most consider "common sense gun legislation"

He wasn't trying to sway any voters on the issue.

He voiced the position of most Americans and asked the corrupt GOP that are bought out by the NRA to do what it is right

Of course. It's hilarious. What he should have done is speak to the public and tell them that those congress people are evil. And nothing will change until they are replaced

Please define "common sense gun legislation" before putting words in my mouth.

He was chumming the waters for progressives. It's why he said nothing, and people are blowing themselves over it. Americans love them some celebrity worship.

Correct.

I did watch it. I even gave you a synopsis.
“We need responsible gun ownership. … We need background checks,” he said Tuesday. “We need to raise the minimum age to purchase an AR-15 rifle to 21. We need a waiting period for those rifles. We need red flag laws and consequences for those who abuse them.”
