It said "Regulate guns, not drag" but I used a paint marker to make it say "Don't regulate guns, drag."

That’s something I don’t get about queers for gun control, like what are you gonna do? Vogue the fascists to death!?

Famously we defeated the nazis in spirited debate and hitler willingly relinquished power 🥰

He didn't know he was supporting something bad until a leftist patiently explained it to him. Innocent mistake really, could've happened to anyone.

Really cool of him to admit he was wrong like that. Sets a good example.

Don’t you know? The French politely asked the royals and the rich to put their heads in the guillotine and they did!

Statistically more likely to die to gun violence.

Yea, I'm gonna own a gun(s)

My stance was basically "What do you need guns for? We have other means of self-defense, the police should be able to resolve situations involving guns and finally what is this whole bullshit about defending yourself against tyranny anyway?"

My perspective was shapen by the ideal of peacefully resolving conflict situations, not being very observant of the police and the fact that i am german and guns simply aren't spread far and wide.

What changed my perspective is seeing how uuuuh well and peacefully the cops handle situation with and without guns (especially american cops due to their training but german cops can shoot quite quickly too), the fact that the USA is a country where guns are widely available and in use and the fact that the nuts begging to defend themselves against tyranny are happily imposing tyranny on us queer people. The whole self defense against government idea was initially an excuse for some other historical thing in the US IIRC but now we have fascist orange sitting on top and republicans are happily siding with him no matter how much he keeps lying.

You can be pro gun control and still have for as long as fascists are allowed to as well.

The benefits of any "sensible" gun regulations would be far more effectively and less abusably achieved through just... normal social safety nets and stuff.

The choice to kill comes before the choice of weapon. Anyone dedicated to ending lives will find an implement to do so (knives, acid, nail bombs, motor vehicles, bow and arrows, etc. etc. etc.), so the only truly effective way to stop violence is to actually prevent violence.

Remove or solve the factors driving people to make the choice to kill, and gun violence solves itself.

Well yeah I've been saying for years that gun deaths are largely a problem of men being insane and also gang warfare due to poverty and the resulting drug trade. But things like denying guns to people convicted of domestic violence and having waiting periods are good ideas.

u/Wolffe_In_The_Dark BCM Bisexual 10d ago edited 10d ago

Yeah but those are a part of existing gun regs.

The point is we don't need any more, we need to get rid of most of what we already have and refine the little we keep.

u/Claire_De_Lunatic 10d ago edited 9d ago

We don't have those regulations in every state

Edit: I stated a fact. I just same-day purchased a firearm for the third* time in my life a couple months ago, and not all domestic violence charges are felonies. Do your research folks. Don't instinctively trust everything you read.

u/Wolffe_In_The_Dark BCM Bisexual 10d ago

Waiting periods and banning convicted felons for life are Federal law, the States don't get a say in that part.

u/Claire_De_Lunatic 9d ago edited 9d ago

Huh? Waiting periods aren't federal law, and I was talking about specifically DV offenders, not all felons. This is either bad faith engagement, a misreading of what I said, and/or the accidental spreading of misinformation.

u/BlahajBlaster mountain dew blahaj blaster 9d ago

They might be referring to the Brady act or the safer communities act

u/Claire_De_Lunatic 9d ago

Didn't they do away with the waiting period when digital background checks became a thing?

u/BlahajBlaster mountain dew blahaj blaster 9d ago

Yes, unless you get a delay

It's possible that has changed in the past few years though

Rather not. Give me my suppressed full auto MAC-10 please.

u/Claire_De_Lunatic 9d ago

I never said you couldn't have that. I just think it's okay to make someone wait a few days for it. And I don't think people who beat their partners or children should be allowed to own guns.

As someone with deep anarchist tendencies, even an anarchist society has governance and a justice system.

u/Bikemonkeys 7d ago

Who gets to pick who gets to own a gun? California has proven that doesn't work. Their gun regulation is based on Racism. But in today's political environment, would anyone posting in here be allowed to own a gun?

u/RidgeBlueFluff BCM Bisexual 9d ago

Laws? What next, a society? Or maybe even protections?

I can 3d print a gun. Gun control will never work. All gun laws are infringement and will be used to abuse minorities. Please change

Thanks for posting /u/TrumpIsAPedoFr! Please make sure your post adheres to the rules. Please name any firearms or accessories featured in this post to help out our newer members. Please report comments that break the rules, and don't respond to negativity with negativity.

The rules of firearm safety are paramount. Keep these in mind at all times while handling a firearm for any reason. Guns are not toys and it is best to not refer to them as such.

It is the belief of the mod team that your best option for defensive firearms is a 5.56x45mm AR-15, and a reputable 9x19mm handgun such as a Glock or CZ. Defensive firearms should have a light, long guns a sling, and handguns require a Kydex or solid plastic holster that fully covers the trigger. A red dot or etched optic are ideal for new shooters but don't forget to practice your backup irons!
