Anti-Gun Control argument fail...

I was just exposed to a new tactic from the right-wing gun loving crowd: gloating about how mass shootings have increased dramatically under President Obama's watch!

I'm afraid I do not understand why the right thinks this is a winning argument, or something with which to taunt the President. Has there been any meaningful gun-control legislation passed under Obama's watch at all?

I would expect to see this article in Mother Jones, not on some right-wing site.

Uhhh, DU?

Just saw a side-bar ad for a "MAGA" ring here on DU. Does DU have any saw over who advertises here?
