Well, this tweet from Shannon Watts certainly isn’t disturbing or anything:
Dear Laura Ingraham and pundits who oppose gun safety: Public opinion is not on your side. Oppose us at your own peril.
— Shannon Watts (@shannonrwatts) March 29, 2018
“Oppose us at your own peril”?
At her own "peril"? Really?

Is that a threat, Shannon? Because it kinda sounds like one …
You making a threat????

Sounds like a threat.

There's something "uncomfortable" about being a big voice to threaten people…I don't like it.

To be fair, Watts doesn’t have her sights set exclusively on Ingraham and gun safety opponents, whatever the hell those are. She’s also making sure that advertisers are on high alert:
Dear companies: Public opinion on gun safety requires you to do more than just pull advertising when pundits misbehave. Be as outraged by lax gun laws that endanger your customers and employees as you are other civil rights injustices. Be proactive or sacrifice profits.

What a lovely gal she is.
Dear Americans who support gun safety: You are the majority. Your activism matters. Don’t let anyone intimidate or silence you, and don’t tolerate those who try to. We are the boss of lawmakers and businesses. Keep acting like it.

You’ve gotta love Watts telling gun control proponents not to let anyone intimidate or silence them, given that that’s exactly what she’s trying to do to gun rights advocates and advertisers who don’t bend to her will. Sound familiar?

Peril? haha You sound like a bully.

She and David Hogg are two peas in a pod: Both bullies, and both mind-numbingly ignorant when it comes to gun safety.
"Oppose gun safety"? No, NRA helped a lot more than you did when it comes to gun safety and responsible gun ownership. What we oppose is your unconstitutional "gun controls".

That sounds like a threat. It also sounds like a stupid comment. No one opposes gun safety. We oppose useless laws that only infringe on the rights of innocent people.
