Just cause Jerry was meandering doesn't mean he's gonna commit a gun crime or something. Kinda seems like somebody is, or has been, into the magic mushroom stash again. Will at least one of the supremes say, "Nice try boys, now back to the play pen with you."?

Gerrymandering is the reason we have the CBC.

Proving that UCLA professors have nothing else to do but smoke weed and indulge in wishful thinking.

Gerrymandering has allowed the left to stay in power. I am not sure what the author is trying to say here. Even fewer districts would be held by Democrats without it. Not only that, but the fact that likely fewer than 1 percent of legal gun owners murder people says something.

“Professors” - the least credible people in America. Please ignore them everyone.

Any rational means of drawing lines leaves most congressional districts red. Dividing up urban areas to spread their influence is anti-conservative and not the other way around.

I think a state should be divided in the most geographically compact areas that contain about 650000 people. A computer driven cluster program would be more than fair.

Yesterday, two gun control-advocating UCLA professors penned an OpEd

Stopped reading right there.

Without Gerrymandering, I wonder how much of the Congressional Black Caucus would survive....

I’m not convinced. In many states there are so called non partisan commissions which determine district voting lines such as Arizona for example.

In Arizona there are only perfunctory gun control laws.

Recall also that after the Mandalay Bay massacre, the interests in gun ownership, and subsequent gun sales, went up, not down. Sharing violence across congressional districts will only make gun ownership go up, not down.

I bought 200 shares of AOBC (Smith and Wesson) today.

Do not the Dems use that type of political practice?

Gerrymandering has helped turn Colorado purple.

Nobody worried about my rights and representation when I was gerrymandered into some dumblecrat’s district after decades spent in another....nobody was offering ways to adress it then...

They are not concerned with rights at all...just the fact that they are not the ones in power...if they steal it back, they will not give two sh-ts about your rights.

I am reminded of the Trump election map and the map of gun violence. Remove gerrymandering and Trump has 83% of country and something like 95% of county is gun violence free. Imagine a congress made up of like minded people representing the majority.
