zero…randy just makes shit up. then, when pressed to support his claims, he either conveniently disappears or moves the goal posts

he’s got some very lobster-esque tendencies

I mean, if by support you meant looking for a poll showing the exact opposite of what he claimed.

The self-owns never stop. (From your article.)

...A Pew Research Center survey shows 75% of Blacks, 72% of Asians, and 65% of Hispanics say gun laws should be stricter compared to only 45% of white people...

I'd like to know what randy feels "minority groups" (and their rights) need protection from.

Big government. Same thing all of us do

Where they are getting played, is big government claims to be advocates for them, while wanting to take away gun rights

Why do they do this? Its simple. Big government pretends to care about the individuals certain rights, in exchange for support that gives big government MORE POWER

And at the same time big government brainwashes you into surrendering or restriction some of your others rights in the name of safety, which again will give big government MORE POWER

Every move they make, is calculated steps inching towards more control and more power

but those groups largely want more gun regulation (despite your unsubstantiated urgings to the contrary)

so, by bringing about that legislation, the government is absolutely advocating for them

more control and more power?

that’s the gop playbook (see reproductive rights, books, child welfare, teaching history, how to dress, who to love, etc., etc., etc.)

Every accusation...

But it's important to remember that context is everything.

A fish doesn't think anyone drowns in the ocean. A Christo-Fascist doesn't think anyone is being oppressed in a society formed from that playbook you describe.
