Calls for more gun control almost always follow a public crime or terror attack in which the attacker–or attackers–use a gun.

"Now, now. Those dead bodies are just some little thing that conservatives blow out of proportion."

I applaud your sarcasm, but, in reality:

Every one is gleefully welcomed by liberals as soapboxes and partying platforms where they can rant and stamp and shout their mindless Marxist propaganda.
