Sowing the Wind 0
Werner Herzog’s Bear wonders whether the time has come for Republicans to reap the whirlwind they have conjured up. Here’s the opening of his post:
One such example is the Republican eagerness to put the grievances of the “open carry” movement into law, as just recently happened in Texas. This is a movement that worships guns and views the Second Amendment as a protection against tyranny, as if the only thing standing between the status quo and a dictatorship is a bunch of dudes carrying AR-15’s into the local Chipotle. Voters who vote on gun issues tend to be highly motivated, so the Republicans are willing to break bread with armed vigilantes if it means electoral success.
