Weird how all the gun people didn't do a goddamn thing when Citizens United happened

When people they like do thing that are bad, that makes it okay.

It’s only bad when people they don’t like do it.

It’s toddlerlogic.

It's also bad when the people they hate try to do good.

Citizens United didn't limit anyone's rights. It's fair to say it was a dumb ruling, but not worth risking anyone's life over.

It was definitely worth risking one's life over, as it certainly limited people's rights in so much as it was a direct attack on democracy itself.
