I LoL at the post about; "Anybody can get 20 people to show up at a protest".

They can't even get 5 people to post in the gun control group.

I know, right? Its quite obvious that gun control has no significant grass roots at all, to pretty much anyone not burying their head in a deep dark safe space where reality does not apply. Speaking of bansalot:

They can't even get 5 people to post in the gun control group.

Yeah, the place is basically a ghost town. Its host spends more time here trying to antagonize us, than posting there actually engaged in real activism, to the point that this is his/her favorite group. I wish they'd ask themselves a serious question:

"If we can't get great activism for gun control on DU, where CAN we?"

At best the general public, in spite of push polls says:

What the gun controller has said is unimportant, and we do not hear his words.

At worst? See gun sales.

I know you get it, but good gravy, the thickness of those who don't...
