Don't forget the Gun Free School Zones act of 1990. After that the school shootings began.

Outstanding read and links, RF. I even got a refresher on "Climate Change" and, within that link, a reminder of Climate, the Movie, that i watched, in its fascinating entirety, when you first supplied the link. Much appreciated. You've laid this

Post out in just the Right way for folks to take it with them as they converse and convince neighbors and others that this juggernaut needs to stop right here, right now.

I want to encourage everyone to find what has hurt their Democrat neighbors the most in the past 4 years, like crime, prices, transing the kids, etc. You can do this sincerely and conversationally. Keep these things uppermost in their minds as you remind them that their Party will continue to drive these issues. 4 years of change from their biggest worry looks healthy to most people. Find one of those folks and buy them lunch after you drive them to the polls on the 5th.

I have tried interventions with democrats and they act like they are in a cult and do not want to leave. It is worth a shot though. You just never know when they are ready.
