Probably that the gun control movement is a joke, run by a racist Billionaire with no grass roots support beyond a lot of online whining, feeble excuses and nobody that actually does anything to support their so called "principles".

But that's just a wild guess, based on how "effective" gun control has been in the past 20 years.
