Why is the expression for a gun "lock and load" when you load, then lock

It just rolls better. "Load n lock" makes you trip your tongue.

I LOOKED IT UP ON THE INTERNET...WHEN A MAN AND A WOMAN LOVE EACH OTHER...

The question assumes certain things are true, eg ‘when did you stop beating your wife?’

It’s a rhetorical trick, frequently used by Leftist journalists.

Who said that?

99 percent of trumplings. including, you know, their object of devotion.

No, that’s you inventing a sentence and falsely attributing it to your political enemies - another dirty trick of the Left.

A loaded question throws open closet doors and exposes the skeletons within. To answer one honestly is usually to one's detriment.
