You're a gun advocate, so you're a blind follower of one of the most powerful lobbies in Washington, that backs a multi-billion dollar industry, that spends millions to play Thank You For Smoking in Washington and you think you're the most vulnerable to attacks?

Compared to mentally ill people, which have virtually nobody with money standing up for them, who've had any programs that help them systematically gutted since the Reagan years.

Don't worry, I'm not laughing with you. I'm laughing at you.
