Eating their own
Looks like there’s a petty squabble at Every Town’s gun control group:
The gun violence prevention movement was thrown into utter turmoil this week after survivors and advocates learned that Everytown for Gun Safety has sponsored the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) conference for two out of the past three years (2015 and 2017). Everytown volunteers like me are now leaving the organization in droves, disgusted that our leadership would partner with an organization that has been a steadfast ally of the National Rifle Association and defender of racially-motivated police brutality. For too long, gun control groups like Everytown have implemented top-down organizational models that treat gun violence prevention advocates like servants and gun violence survivors like fundraising fodder, giving us little or no say in our own advocacy. That must end now.
I doubt seriously that EveryTown has droves.

“…defender of racially-motivated police brutality.”
Citation needed.
Methinks the agitprop has suppressed all ability to reason.

In my best Seinfeld voice:
“Well, that’s a shame.”

“I doubt seriously that EveryTown has droves.”
I STRONGLY doubt that they represent every town either.

Well he got the top-down part right…Bloomie’s advocates are his servants and “survivors” are his fodder.

I guess I can now say I’ve had droves of girlfriends.

The only volunteer that matters to them is the one guy writing the big checks.

droves = both or two depending if they had more than two.
