a surprising number of Democrats seem to be getting the wrong answer to the question “should Martin Luther King Jr. have been allowed to buy a gun?”
I love this heuristic. If your gun control scheme would render MLK unable to get a gun, what it is is a shitty gun control scheme. Now we just need to find a way to coordinate the mass scorning of every democrat who ever suggests a gun control scheme that fails the MLK test.
(And non-democrats too, let’s not discriminate unwarrantedly, but instead let reality do the discrimination for us at least until republicans start being less about the Second Amendment and more about the “Let’s bully black people some more” thing.)
