Beto o rourke? Doesn’t ring a bell. Remind me what office he holds ?

No seriously though- really nice work. You found one quote from the former mayor of a Texas town who currently holds no office, and you’re using that quote like it defines a literally decades-long campaign of “Dems are gonna take your guns” Come on man you can do better than that. I’ll even GIVE you one: “ take their guns first, do due process second” there, that one’s on me.

He was a nominee for presidential candidate* you baffoon, and a close ally with Biden as well.

And that's just one example from 2019. There are plenty more examples if you dig a bit more.

I’ll even GIVE you one: “ take their guns first, do due process second” there, that one’s on me.

Yup, that's another good one, but unfortunately that one wasn't spoken by a "dem". Still a great example of authoritarians trying to disarm civilians which is precisely what I am against.

There’s no need for name-calling here. If that’s how you want to debate you can do it with someone else.

I genuinely didn't mean to insult you with the word "baffoon", but I honestly find it silly that you're taking the "holier than though" approach here. Whatever floats your boat.
