To everyone out there who opposes racism, bigotry, hatred, and divisiveness, or just plain hates Donald Trump:

With Donald Trump poised to become the Republican candidate for President, it is time to put aside all of our other differences. If you are a Democrat, it is time to stop arguing about whether Hillary Clinton is too mainstream or Bernie Sanders is too radical. If you are a Republican who doesn't support Trump, it is time to stop arguing about whether the other candidates are horrible for whatever reasons you think they are horrible (sorry, I don't follow the Republicans well enough to provide details the way I can with the Democrats).

It is time to face the reality that we will all, Democrats and Republicans, Millennials and Old Fogies, need to unite behind whoever wins the Democratic Primary so that Donald Trump does not become the next President of the United States.

"The only way to stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun."

We've heard it over and over again from the NRA. "If only someone in the theater in Aurora had had a gun ..." "If only one of the teachers at Sandy Hook had been armed ..." "If I'da been there [wherever], I'da capped his ass!"

No matter how many people step up to disagree (I remember one very thoughtful writer, possibly here, saying after Aurora that he was a well-trained, excellent marksman, and after reading about the situation in Aurora felt he stood absolutely no chance of hitting the shooter had he been there, and probably would have ended up killing innocent people if he'd tried), the NRA keeps trotting out this old saw.

I think that perhaps after this weekend's shootings in Las Vegas, we may finally have some pretty strong proof of why they need to retire it.
