My ladies group has had a few target shooting days over the years. Lots of fun!
It’s all about not only HOW you ask, but WHERE you ask and WHO you ask.
Just like when certain kinds of lawsuits are filed almost exclusively in East-Texas courtrooms - where more liberal/anti-business courts prevail... you shop around your question to find the most accommodating audience for the narrative you wish to portray.
Of course - when you control most of the media - and said media is flooding the minds and time of the majority of Americans - along with public schools and universities that are constantly working overtime to brainwash the masses into their Marxist viewpoints.
But there are a lot of suburban moms who get together at their hen parties where they collectivity decide the sensible solution to everything.
