Yes and No

Whistling Past the Gun Lobby

Yes, the Democrats already do without traditional Southern whites.

But those were not the people David Atkins referred to.

And, no, David Atkins’ absolutely vicious characterization of exurban, rural whites as racists and K’s own characterization of pro-gun rights folk as fanatics are both grossly unfair and unacceptable.

Add to that the fact that gun control in a country where tens of millions of people already own hundreds of millions of firearms is an absurd but vote-getting futility and the picture of liberal unfairness, fraud, and folly on this issue is complete.

You cannot make guns hard to lay hands on in America without repeal of the 2^nd Amendment and widespread civilian disarmament.

And nobody’s even hinting at either on the liberal side of the street or the Democratic side of the aisle.
