Some people never learn.
In the latest episode of Tweets that backfired on Kevin Sorbo, the proud conservative played the role of gun expert and gun rights advocate—a recurring role—but quickly recoiled as he was immediately dragged for his comment.
Sorbo tweeted:
A quick Google search will allow anyone permission to comment about guns, per Sorbo's rule.
We thought Sorbo was a First Amendment advocate?
But none of that matters, though, because people did in fact comment.
Somebody likes the 2nd amendment, but not the 1st.

Sorbo definitely shot himself in the foot with this tweet.
It stands for ArmaLite Rifle and should be heavily regulated if not outright banned. Come at me.
I mean, if you're not the kind of weener who needs semiautomatic action and NATO cartridges to hunt or defend your home.

Many used Sorbo's own logic against him.
If you think this is at all relevant to policy addressing the epidemic of gun violence—the #1 cause of death for children in the USA—you can’t comment about guns.

If that rule applies, you really shouldn’t talk about people with jobs since you haven’t had one in over 30 years.

If you can’t carry a baby in your womb, you shouldn’t be commenting on women’s reproductive health rights.

If you’ve never seen real victims of gun violence in person, you have no business commenting on measures to stem or stop gun violence.

Most agreed the name of the weapon isn't the issue.
Gun boys love to make the argument about semantics to distract from them needing weapons of mass murder in order to feel important.

Well, school kids aren't surviving long enough to learn what it stands for.

Sorbo hasn't responded to any of his dissenters yet, but that's probably for the best.
