Democrats may have inadvertently handed Republicans an argument they [the Democrats] hardly needed at this juncture in their evolution. Democrats have owned the "murder by gun" argument as a justification since raising their 2A ban effort since almost forever, politically and socially. Now, mostly due to DSA inclusion in the D- bigtent, the Dems have painted themselves into a border crisis corner. It's a boogeyman issue, but by media standards, murder-by-illegal-immigrant is becoming that boogeyman in the closet, and the door is bulging outward. That door is not made of rubber.
