The Politics of Emotional Feedback, Kundalini Yoga, Dopamine Casinos, and You

"GRABBER will be an appeal to emotion. “Won’t someone think about the children,” they’ll cry, while completely ignoring the statistics on homicide or inefficacy of gun control policies"

I would disagree with this part. Grabbers tend to use lots of statistics (from www.statsthatprovemeright.com) while ignoring principles.
They often try to take the pragmatic position "look i get the 2nd amendment but Japan did bla bla bla an Australia did X Y Z"

They used to, but Australian stats fell through a couple of years ago when looking at the murder rate that went up.
