As we told you previously, Dana Loesch dropped a big fact check on Tom Arnold about the NRA and mental health issues. Later, Loesch’s husband, Chris, shared some info:
Over 22,000 of those deaths were suicides. Some of the remaining 11,000 were justifiable homocides. The smallest percentage of gun deaths were by rifles and the least was AR-15’s. The majority of gun murders are illegal handguns and gang activity.

Arnold didn’t take well to that, and had a predictable reaction:
You are a ghoul @ChrisLoesch who cares more about sucking up to @NRA than helping save lives of future mass shooting or suicide victims. Other parents will bury children because of lies, red herrings & boogie men your family Trump & NRA perpetuated on frightened naive Americans.
— Tom Arnold (@TomArnold) November 28, 2018
At that point, Dana Loesch joined in with a challenge that she elaborated on yesterday (since Arnold seems convinced the NRA is complicit in mass murder):
It’s sad that this is how you disagree with parents like us simply because we support 2A. Tom — why are you dodging my request that you livestream yourself calling the authorities on me and millions of others since you called us “terrorists?” It’s been 24 hours. https://t.co/NiU6lgXb1V

Chris finished up:
Over 3 million defensive uses of guns per year dwarfs all deaths and gun crimes combined. Plus we still have ALL our liberties in tact. My support for the NRA and gun ownership SAVES LIVES. Those dancing on the graves of the defenseless are the ghouls. https://t.co/f3zP110aM5

We doubt any of that will change Arnold’s mind, but it can’t hurt to try. Others also made the effort, as evidenced by the growing ratio on Arnold’s tweet:

Arnold’s style of “debating” has been seen before:
my 7 year old name calls when he has lost the argument.

“You know you’ve lost an argument when…”
You need help sir…like actual mental help

@DLoesch Maybe you should remind Tommyboy the last time an NRA member shot up anything. I don't have all of the stats, but I'd venture to say, never.

A not-so-minor detail that’s conveniently avoided by the “blame the NRA for everything” crowd.
