...a wave is coming.

But it isnt "socialists"...... it is a Coalition of the Decent.

they're forced 100% into fearmongering irrational lies. They can no longer use traditional gun-control arguments that decent, sensible people could support. Those won't work for their extreme positions.

That's bizarre but nice to see how partisan the NRA has become.

Edit: My bad, it's a mic, it just looked strange.

Also, some one needs to show the far left that everyone on the cover (they bash all of them but Bernie) is not a corporate tool but is really a socialist.

Crazy gun humper that we are socialists? That we don’t want to live in a society where people are suffering and we want to see them have dignity in their lives we are socialists?

Then I’m a proud socialist!

Republicans are more afraid of the Free Press than state propaganda?

Republicans are more afraid of Freedom of Speech than they are of nuts with guns?

Republicans are more afraid of well spoken liberal activists than Putin?


Good to know where their weaknesses are, and that they have so many vulnerable spots.

Definitely not guns, let alone modern ones.

And even in ancient times, anyone carrying a stick or rock openly would most likely be regarded as hostile and dangerous.

There's a reason that shaking hands is an ancient tradition. It was to show that a person was not armed and had peaceful intentions.

"Hand guns are made for killin'
Ain't no good for nothin' else
And if you like to drink your whiskey
You might even shoot yourself

So why don't we dump 'em people
To the bottom of the sea
Before some old fool come around here
And wanna shoot either you or me."

As long as we do that we give them ways to wedge apart the people.
