There are things that I don’t think you should do, even if I’ll defend your right to do them. I don’t see this as a contradiction, either. To me, it’s simply a matter of there being a difference between “should” and “can.” When you start regulating what people can…

I get that most gun control advocates know jack squat about shooting. David Hogg tried to find a niche for himself a while back by making a big thing out of his going shooting; thus, he couldn’t really be anti-gun, but now that no one is buying it, he’s…
