ANTs in her Pants

 Let’s examine what happens when a fatal shooting occurs: Is it the gun that kills people, as gun control advocates insist? Or is it the person holding the gun, as gun rights advocates insist?

I'm not sure where she's going with this, but I won't be surprised to find out humidity is racist.
