And who gets to decide when a state is no longer free? Or just what should be done about it? These peckerhead cammie wearing and assault rifle toting patriots aren't consulting my young liberal ass. Their idea of a free state is one without any people like me in it.
In the meantime, innocent people keep on dying. And every day it gets worse, because the NRA spends millions creating and exploiting paranoia in order to increase the sales and profits of a brutal and greedy industry by catering to hatred, ignorance and fear.
If "there was no way to win by argument" there wouldn't be one.
