There is no doubt that fentanyl is a dangerous drug. It has long since surpassed heroin on the list of drugs people only do once. That its prevalence has more to do with pharma companies irresponsibly pushing opioids than drug pushers pushing a new drug often goes ignored during this heated, ongoing debate that is often so far removed from reality as to be literally laughable.

It's the guns. It's always the guns.
Shootings like the one at Brown University are political inconveniences for Republicans.
And one of the most aggravating elements of the so-called debate over gun violence is the despicable falsehood pushed by conservatives:
They are coming to confiscate your guns.
