I heard Feinstein on the radio today.

I've never liked her very much.

I think we get riled up because of the fetish factor, the guns in movies factor, the guns and violence associated with sex factor.

And the fetish factor is by no means limited to gun enthusiasts.

The fetish factor is shared, maybe to a greater degree, by those who get all riled up about them.
