A word on the subject that must not be discussed (hint: it uses bullets)

A word on the subject that must not be discussed

by digby

We may have just suffered two new major mass murders in the last six months but there’s no reason that a national political campaign should mention it. There’s nothing we can do. The NRA has spoken and we are not only not allowed to discuss gun control, we are not allowed to even acknowledge massive gun deaths and repeated mass murders as a social or political program.

I’ve said it before: if you want to see what a massively successful political issue campaign looks like, look at the the NRA. They’ve completely changed this country’s relationship to murder. That’s quite an achievement.

But that’s not saying you can’t ask.
