For example, AOC insists that the Virginia Supreme Court should have ruled on the redistricting referendum beforehand but "explicitly chose to issue this ruling after the election happened" and thus "overturned the will of three million Virginians."

However, the ruling makes clear on p. 7 that it was Virginia Democrats who had originally argued that precedent barred the case from being reviewed until after the vote.

Does the benefit of lying so blatantly for so little return really outweigh the need for credibility when calling out Trump's equally outlandish lies?

The attacker had no previous criminal history or documented mental issues, and he legally purchased a pump-action shotgun and basic semi-auto pistol in the most gun-restrictive state in the country. Numerous gun control groups, politicians, media figures etc. are nevertheless vaguely calling for "more gun control" so something like this won't happen again.

The pro-gun side sees this as evidence that such people want a full ban and/or simply have no idea what they're talking about. Is there a third option?
