I hope my fellow Democrats are finally beginning to see why disarming ourselves was such a bad fucking idea.
No, I don’t want people to run around randomly murdering each other. These laws haven’t stopped that.
It’s going to be hard to fight fascism when only the fascists are armed.
Then you get the smug assholes posting questions like, “Hey gun owners why aren’t you standing against tyranny for me?” as though I could do shit alone.
I hate that goddamn question. Literally demanding others to die on their behalf.
I think its more that some folks have been saying they needed their guns in case the government overeached and curtailed freedom. The government is doing exactly that, and many of the “guns will save my family from Incle Sam” folks are cheering the changes instead of rising up. People are pointing out the hypocrisy, not demanding people die for them
The people who are asking that question are probably the people who believed they wouldn’t see a tyrannical government on US soil. If the Democrats hadn’t wasted so much political capital on bending over to billionaires and their gun control fantasy, more people on the left would be armed right now. Instead, they pushed the rhetoric that only crazy conservatives own guns. They pushed it so hard that now many crazy conservatives own guns. Of course they’re gonna love the Trump regime. One party spent decades saying they are horrible people for shooting paper, and did whatever they could to take that away from people. They don’t see what’s happening as tyranny because the Democrats told these gun owners they will face tyranny with a Democratic controlled government.
If anyone truly believes Trump is or is trying to be the American Hitler, then they are buying ammo and plate carriers.
I hope my fellow Democrats are finally beginning to see why disarming ourselves was such a bad fucking idea.
Normally I would disagree with you and continue to argue for gun control. But seeing how fucked America is at the moment you are kinda right.
It’s like the gun crazies in your country finally created a situation so bad that you actually need guns…
This shit only happens in your fucked up country. You’ve long lost the opportunity for distinguishing between good and bad gun owners. The whole world sees that y’all only have fascists with gun because America couldn’t give up their gun addiction in the first place.
That’s just the price we pay for freedom.
Forgot /s? 😂
Holy crap, I can’t tell if you’re joking or not
Should be obvious.
It’s not. Not anymore, anyway
So we’re you kidding or serious?
these laws haven’t stopped that
What laws? You still get assault rifles with your eggs Benedict breakfast there in the US, so what fracking laws are you talking about?
Shoot mass shootings still happen all the time to the point where children get active shooter training because guns are more readily avait than butter.
What laws?
Your police forces receive regular arms shipments from the US army
What laws are you talking about? For all intents and purposes there are some laws that prohibit things like nukes, tanks, machine guns and other heavy weaponry but that’s about it.
The US is a gun nut country and the entire attitude you have about guns is the same attitude that is the problem in the US. All other countries have solved these issues and the US still pretends that all this is new, and there is no way to stop any of this!
The US could solve prettyuch of its problems within a year if it wanted to
It just doesn’t, it prefers to suffer a dnpull the rest of the world down with it
There are no laws that stopped gun violents in the US.
“It is difficult to see how Maryland’s categorical prohibition on AR-15s passes muster under this framework,” he wrote.
Oh, Clarence. There are SO many things that are difficult for you to see.
“It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his
salarybribery depends upon his not understanding it!”Luxury RVs aren’t known for visibility.
That’s Motor Coach to you, pleb!
The AR-15 as well as magazines with more than 10 rounds are both in common use for lawful purposes, making any such blanket ban on either unconstitutional as per Heller.
That said, the Supreme court declines cases on the regular, which is not a judgement either for or against prior rulings. Though it does mean the prior ruling stands for now.
Traditionally (as in the decades after the 2nd was written) all concealed carrying of weapons was illegal. It was also not uncommon for law enforcement to disarm people when they entered town. Heller is a terrible ruling because it claims to hold to history while ignoring historical norms that are inconvenient for the pro-gun lobby.
It was common during those times to open carry however. It’s just that concealed carry is much, much more common now. Quite a bit of that has to do with people’s attitudes toward arms. It’s much easier to not upset people if they don’t know you are carrying.
And I can tell you from personal experience, even if you are printing, vanishingly few people notice. When I quit my last job, told my manager I had carried every day for the last years. He had never noticed.
Oh yeah, I know. I know it’s not a common take, but I am pro open carry, but anti concealed carry. I feel safer when I know who is and isn’t armed.
