I mean really, you can convolute the fuck out of things but to whine 
about a fuckhead who smiles about people being required to pry the gun 
out of his "cold dead hands" (or skeletal bones, as the case may now be) 
vs the granddaddy of mass shootings is out of whack even by your 
standards.  How do you put two and two together and keep coming up with 
fifty million?
