Dammit, this is the worst backlash I can remember. Guns are being de-legitimized. We're LOSING.
I think this is analogous to the Battle of the Bulge.
They've been waiting for us. I think they've been planning this since before HRC's dreams were crushed and she made her faithful supporters wait overnight before conceding because she was too hammered to stay upright.
They've known for some time that the only way to turn the tables on us was to knock us back on our heels. The only way to level the field was (for them) to play dirty, really dirty. That's what this is all about.
Just like that fateful battle during the last - and hopefully final - World War, they may appear to be winning. However, it's early and they haven't seen our counter offensive yet. They think we've given them all we have. but we're just getting warmed up.
What amazes me is that they have resorted to every dirty trick in the book, because that's all they have left. They know they can't win with integrity, honesty and the facts. I've realized that this struggle will never be over, but a decisive win this time will be a real set back for them. We can give it to them.
