A Hill With A View

On Monday, the self-righteous sycophants at The Washington Post decided to add a little more darkness to American Democracy by conducting a deceitful poll that is designed to elicit the answers they want to push their preferred gun control agenda.   To add a little light to said darkness that The Post is promoting, let’s breakdown the poll and the problem with each question.

Requiring background checks for all potential gun buyers



The favorite talking point of the gun-grabbing left is that there aren’t background checks.  This is patently false.  Every gun purchased at a federally licensed dealer requires a background check.  Nearly dealers at gun shows are federally licensed, and perform background checks.  The only legal transactions that don’t require background checks are private sales or loans.  33 states currently do not have a law that requires background checks on private transactions, mostly because there is no enforcement mechanism for it.  As recently debated on Twitter bet…

Is anyone else made really uncomfortable these days by anyone wearing any kind of red baseball cap? Like, I see one and my heart does weird shit and then I finally realize it only says Titleist or whatever. Maybe don't wear red caps anymore, normal people?



















She even went further and said that even fans of sports whose team colors are red shouldn't wear their team hats.  "Not worth making disenfranchised people feel unsafe".  



As if that wasn't enough, she compared Trump supporters to Nazis, claiming that Hindus don't wear swastikas because it would offend/frighten people.  As a reminder, the reason that swastikas offend and/or frighten people is because the Nazi party systematically rounded up Jews hiding in attics and cellars, put them in cattle-cars, and gassed th…
