ENEMIES OF CIVILIZATION:

Nuclear power has been set back decades because brain-dead hippies like Jane Fonda weren’t smart enough to tell a nuclear power plant apart from a nuclear bomb. People her age think Three Mile Island killed thousands of people when the actual death count was zero. https://t.co/q4jOJirG3u

WELL, THAT’S TRUE OF NEARLY ALL OF THEIR TALKING POINTS: John Lott: Democrats’ Favorite Talking Point About Children And Gun Deaths Is A Lie. “Gun control advocates often claim that guns are the leading cause of death among children — but that is false.”

HAHA. OF COURSE.

The panicked Democrat talking point has been released …
