Mallard Fillmore not funny

The definition of “comics” is “humorous /funny.” The Mallard Filmore strip in the August 20 Eagle was neither funny nor humorous. Somebody will need to explain how implying that democrats were using tragic mass shootings for political advantage is supposed to be funny. 

Doonsbury leans left and Filmore leans right. That I can accept. But making an accusation that any group would take advantage of tragic events is over the top repugnant.
