3. right wing cretinism

bill not all gun owners are gun nuts, and many (I would estimate a majority of) gun owners share our views of sensible gun control. The gun nuts, on the other hand, view any form of public safety legislation as a personal attack and threaten violence in response

That is also largely known as right wing cretinism in my book, from days past.
Right wing cretinism only affects maybe 5 to 15% of the republican party, yet many of its perverted views which start as a trickle, gain strength by osmosis slowly insidiously till the perversion becomes acceptable, or at least not unacceptable, to most all of the republican party. Case in point trump, king of right wing cretinism.
(Not saying that republicans support this shooters views & actions)
