I had this discussion here and with my democratic friends AND my republican friends and inlaws.

BOTH sides thought that Newtown was the the last straw and there would be some kind of legislation passed for firearms,

I told everyone it wasn't happening, because Rs are THAT far gone.

Nothing happened.

Unless we have actual video of Putin and 45 saying it word for word to each other, Rs WILL muddle it up, use false equivilencies, etc and do all that they can to avoid admitting they are wrong.

They are THAT far gone.
