You can't rationalize with these people because they believe in "pen violence." If you would consider passing a law against gays you are a target. If you introduce and idea that would restrict abortion, you're violent. If you don't belive trans women are real women, you're a valid target.
I want to be the guy who says "not all my political opponents are irrational, we can work something out" but we can't. The best argument I have seen from the left is that this is a gun issue, not an ideology issue. But the desire to kill was there before the gun. Banning guns won't prevent leftist violence. The ideology has no control or focus, it is a rabid animal operating on emotion. I feel like a right wing extremist saying this, but we can't let these people get more of a foothold. We need to squash them. Being an edgy apt girl with nose rings fighting with dad needs to be a mark of shame again.
