Gaslighting: How Leftists Demonize And Demoralize Their Opposition [More]
Once you realize what they're doing, you can stop, analyze and rebut rather than sputter in frustration because everything feels so overwhelmingly and frustratingly wrong.

Designated Sacrifices
Soon the witness would falsely identify them as the killers. The witness, a Black minister, would later say police, prosecutors and even fellow clergy encouraged him to identify the soldiers as the killers because of fears of a riot if no one was convicted. [More]

Close But No Cigar
But if you want Congress to impose gun restrictions, the only truly constitutional way of doing so is by repealing or altering the Second Amendment, not reinterpreting its meaning to contradict everything the people who passed it into law believed. [More]
