32. When you use common sense

and reasoning, you're just not playing fair because it tends to confuse these NRA trolls. Like all Tea Party right-wingers, if you take them off of their NRA-prepared script, they tend to lose their concentration and become all flustered.

We need to use small words, talk s-l-o-w-l-y, and try not to laugh as that will cause them to become even more incoherent than they normally are.

With just a little practice, we CAN learn to communicate with them using the NRA dialect of troll gibberish.
