It seems like they latched onto the idea that everyone who comments along the lines of "This is a stupid idea.", secretly intends to say "This is a stupid idea, which is why there shouldn't be any gun regulation at all." instead. Needless to say, that's an insane take and only results in them constructing these giant straw man arguments against people who are most likely on the same side as them.
They sound straight up unhinged lol, someone says they don't think it's a good idea and they fly off the handle calling people 300lb gun nuts living in their mom's basement. It makes me sad because I suspect they probably share a lot of similar views as I do but when they present themselves like this it just makes anyone that's unsure of their own political stance think everyone is as batshit as this dude.
