In a nutshell; 20,000 people showed up for the March for Our Lives and about 400 showed up for the Minnesota Gun Rights counter protest. Seems about right. That's the ratio of gun nuts that have opposed common sense gun measures to those who support them. Such a tiny tail wagging such a big dog.
Well, to quote Bob Dylan, the times they are a changin'.
At the end of this 6 minute video from the Joy Reid show a Republican strategist comments that gun control is now in the top 3 issues on voter's minds. Candidates from BOTH parties are being asked to weigh in on where they stand on gun issues. There's a certain amount of bla bla bla about red states and the south must be pro-gun but that belies the fact that even in those places gun safety is a top 3 issue.

Speaking of videos, Youtube has removed all gun videos. The best place to see gun videos now is Pornhub. That also seems about right.
Meanwhile the NRA and our own gun cuddlers here on DU are publicly silent. Except on conspiracy.com and internal fund raising letters of course.
