One is guaranteed murder.
The other isn’t.

I don’t consider the 2A to be a social issue.

One is a God given constitutional right to protect yourself and your family and one is murder on the premise that people shouldn’t be held accountable for their actions.

Sorry you can’t see the difference

So the Constitution isn't involved in any of this?

The Left has kinda moved on to trannies, illegals, and Muslims.

Freedom vs control.

The sad thing is that the left thinks being controlled equals being free. They truly have no concept.

Nope. Both are logical and emotional. Right-wing emotions tend to be based around fear of losing something and feelings of War.. crying over flags Etc. You guys have plenty of emotion. Dont be fooled.

When you say that liberals have emotion you're talking about empathy. I've always thought it was so amazing that the right-wing, which was traditionally based in Christianity, could be so cold and detached when it comes to empathy. Perhaps it's because so many businessman and right-wing profiteers are sociopaths.

Let’s revisit that, shall we?
Which group, exactly, cried over the existence of a historical flag?

You know exactly what I'm talking about. If I'm in a baseball game and 7th inning stretch someone pulls out a flag there's some right-wing guy with his hat off on his heart crying.

The reason it was so easy for Bush to manipulate the American right wing into complete acceptance of the Iraq War was because they threw flags in every background and made it seem like it was all about freedom.

It's no secret that if you want to get right wing people on your side all you have to do is press that emotional button that makes them feel like all those soldiers that died Were dying for some reason.

Sure I know what you’re talking about.
I just happen to disagree with you.
You’re changing the subject, btw.

Very poor comparison. Liberals are responsible for 90% of all gun shooting deaths.
