JournLOLism: Ron Fournier burns himself with his searing hot take on Senate gun control votes

you're usually better than this Ron. Really disappointed you'd tweet something this shallow.

This evening, the Senate blocked four gun control amendments (two of which were put forth by Republicans):

Guns don't kill people. The gun lobby does.

Fer cryin’ out loud, Ron.

Sometimes Ron is a rare media voice of common sense. This is definitely not one of those times.

Very reasoned response, Ron.

Stupid. Beyond dumb.

— Gary Eaton (@garysteveneaton) June 20, 2016

but you have to be obtuse to ignore the legitimate due process question at hand. Your tweet was as bottom-rung as is possible.

— Mark Ripollone (@MarkRipollone) June 20, 2016

That is a ridiculous and offensive statement. You should be ashamed of yourself.

— Neil Hansen (@njh2005) June 20, 2016

That was beneath you…
