“Yes, more guns, the kind of guns that protect the president.” https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/dan-crenshaw-school-shootings-more-guns-1234707962/
@RollingStone A sixth grader could refute that argument 🤦♂️
Why is this newsworthy?
@LouisIngenthron he’s a congressman.
@Craktok By that logic, Rolling Stone should report on every politicians' review of every meal they ever eat.
The argument that this is newsworthy *to his constituents* has merit, but Rolling Stone is a national magazine, not a local Houston paper.
They should be prioritizing reporting on the politicians who actually do things rather than the politicians who intentionally bloviate stupid and offensive things to try to raise their profile.
It's not about "burying my head in the sand". It's about not giving performative jackasses the attention they crave.
@LouisIngenthron you’re conflating a sitting congressman making a statement on where he stands on gun control after ANOTHER mass shooting with something as banal as meal reviews. Your priorities are seriously out of wack. this is definitely national news. Mass shootings don’t only happen in his state.
@Craktok At this point I can't tell if you're intentionally trolling me or are actually too obtuse to understand the point. Either way, there's not much point in continuing this conversation.
@LouisIngenthron being in congress means that he’s convinced thousands of people to vote for him. Which means he’s going to try and make his beliefs policy. Of course R/S should make his constituents aware of what’s he’s doing/saying on their behalf. You may want to bury your head in the sand, but that’s how bad actors thrive.
