On X, Kirk insisted, "Gun control, like vaccines and masks, is focused on making people feel 'safe' by taking freedoms away from others. Don't fall for it."
He didn't fall for it, just kinda slumped over.
He's right, just not about the right topics.
Things like the TSA changes post 9/11 are primarily security theater, ineffective security requirements that make it seem like it makes you safer while just being a waste of time.
Most of the changes in the Patriot Act removed citizen rights for "security" yet have resulted in very little else apart from removing those rights.
