Crushing Dissent
So, Moms Demand Something or Another’s head, Shannon Watts, has to lie about her opposition, implying that Loesch was somehow benefiting financially from speaking out in the gun debate. Which would make her exactly like Watts. But I digress.
Anyway, a lot of crying and boo-hooing from the group was designed to make The View dealing with gun control as one-sided as possible. Because, in an honest debate, the pro-gun side wins. Complete with giving Loesch the “extremist” treatment.
Anyway, typical anti-gun type stuff.

I watched the View today just to see if they would deal with the issue in depth. Whoopi said that “You’re a big supporter of gun rights, aren’t you?”
Dana was able to say that yes, she stood by the 2A as written. The others made noises about how hosts should respect their guests’ views, and then it was time to hurry up and get off this subject. I believe that is because she would have blown their gun control platitudes right out of the water, had they chosen to engage.

The View chickened out. The entire show was pablum so that Dana wouldn’t have the opportunity to show them up.

In an honest debate, the pro-liberty and self-defense side wins.
What was the line from the first Pirates of the Caribbean Movie?
“I could beat you in a fair fight.”
“Well, that’s hardly an inducement to fight fair, is it?”
Statists have known since before the days of the Deacons of Defense that they can’t win an honest debate on self-defense, so they don’t try. It’s all emotion and misdirection.
