This is sort of your tradition. Anyone who disagrees with you must be evil, insane, brainwashed, stupid or otherwise subhuman, and to be subdued or defeated. I disagree. There are solid reasons for existence of most major worldviews, and a holder of that worldview will cling to it when others may have moved on.
Oliver is an extreme partisan. He has an audience and an agenda. So does the NRA. Both are very very biased towards their particular extreme positions. It may be that as you are blindly loyal to one of these positions you are incapable of viewing the situation objectively.
May be? Did I word that too weakly?
That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
