What's interesting is that conservatives are willing to accept tens of thousands of gun deaths as the price of maintaining unimpeded access to firearms while freaking out completely and rushing to the barricades at relatively infrequent incidents of Islamic terrorism.

It's not a price the capitalists are paying. Especially those who re making the most dollars. The gun business is making a lot of people money with a relatively small group making a lot of money. The GOP has always been the party of capital, manufacturing and corporations.

With regards to the perceived Islamic threat, as a former Know Nothing you will recall that most became Republicans.
