Gun control advocates have been on a rampage to tear down any opponents in their way, even if that means burning their own credibility in spectacular fashion.
Former President Obama, for one, kicked off the week by spreading the false Everytown statistic that there have been ’18 mass shootings in 2018.’ Connecticut Governor Dannel Malloy ramped up the hyperbolic rhetoric by labeling the National Rifle Association a “terrorist organization.”
“They act, quite frankly, in some cases as a terrorist organization,” Malloy said. “You want to make safer guns? We will boycott your company. That’s who they are. That’s what they do.”
The National Rifle Association has a membership of roughly 5 million law-abiding Americans (including the author), who want nothing more than to have their right to self defense, as well as the freedom to hunt game, respected by the U.S. government.
This has made them a target of gun control advocates, including Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy, who had the audacity to say on Morning Joe on Wednesday that Republicans are “complicit” in mass murder if they don’t pass more gun control laws.
“Well, I mean, complicit is the word that I use. It makes Republicans complicit in this mass murder,” Murphy argued. “I mean, let’s be honest, these are copycat killers. It’s not a coincidence that every single troubled young man is using an AR-15. They are doing it, because they see the destruction, the lethality, the efficiency of the weapon, and use it again.”
“And when they see Congress do absolutely nothing,” Murphy continued, “I really do believe that this is an unintentional but quiet endorsement of this kind of mass murder.”
A quiet endorsement of mass murder. This is an elected Senator. Astonishing.
Not to be outdone, strident left-wing celebrity-of-sorts Rosie O’Donnell took it NRA spokesperson Dana Loesch, who assuredly isn’t used to being called all sorts of nasty epithets by the activist left.
i cant accept a woman who is the mouthpiece of a terrorist organization – #NRAIsATerroristOrganization

Loesch’s response sums up what many conservatives think about arguing with gun control activists after hearing all their baseless name-calling.
Nothing says “let’s have an honest and logical discussion” like accusing millions of innocent people of being terrorists because you disagree with them on 2A

Her response comes amid the hate and vitriol she has received while standing up for gun rights.
The majority of anti-2A responses are those calling for me to be murdered (ironically with a gun), calling me various slang for female genitalia, a b*tch, etc. It must hurt to carry that much hate after awhile.

I’m not shocked, it’s what I’ve come to expect from the very far left anti-2A. I have friends on the left who can hold civil conversations on issues without devolving to shallow nastiness. Media hasn’t helped this issue. At. All.

I’ve watched as media exploits grief and ignores the real story: Decades of gov’t failure. Political class ignoring the mental health crisis. A sheriff who focused on electioneering rather than following up on repeated reports of danger.

Her pointed response to O’Donnell was accompanied by many others who took Rosie to task for her incendiary remarks.
99% of NRA members are ardent patriots who wouldn’t hesitate to join the front line and go to war for this country, only line you’d get in would be the donut line!!!! 😂🤣💀

And Rosie gave Costa an R-rated response in return:
fuck off costa – my son is a marine – u wanna use weapoms of war – enlist – ur not a patriot ur part of a terrorist organization #SemperFi pic.twitter.com/HvngKKdoAF

Thanks to Rosie’s baseless name-calling, again, echoing the language used by Democratic politicians, the debate degrades from there.

Way to show respect for our service members' families. I'm sure the @USMC is proud of you.

This is where we’ve gotten to in America, thanks to the vile name-calling being spouted by elected Democratic leaders.
Republicans are “complicit” in mass murder. The NRA is a “terrorist organization.” It goes on and on.
It behooves good, decent Americans to remember in November by electing honorable representatives, regardless of the party one subscribes to. Character matters.
