1) No one here (that I remember) is calling for a ban on all guns. Even the headline cited specifically refers to assault weapons.
2) Then it gets itself confused by mentioning psyops/mk ultra which is evidence (in my opinion) of tyrannical government already existing. Which means a proliferation of guns isn't stopping American tyranny... you're number one reason for having them, Cricket.
3) I'm pretty sure it steals a family guy joke. Lazy.
4) It's transphobic
5) It then wonders why governments need guns too? Cool question.
6) It then lists only examples of gun bans (of which we're not calling for) that soon after led to despotism. Why not reference those examples that exist where that didn't happen?
7) SLIPPERY SLOPE! AAAAAAAaaaaahhhhhh!

Like I said. Stupid, Cricket. Be best!
Are we just revamping the old assault weapons ban? Congrats on banning certain features and models.

To be "effective" you'd need to ban all semi automatic weapon. Is that what we are discussing?

Pump action (or bolt action?) non semiautomatic AR-15s exist.

So long as firearms are defined as they are currently, the modular types where the 'firearm' part is defined as some bit with the serial number, you can reconfigure them with the non serialized parts to whatever you like.

It's like banning Millennium Falcon Lego kits but allowing all the relevant bricks to be sold individually. You'd have to amend the NFA to redefine what a firearm is.

I've explained that I don't care if it's complicated. Many times.

Also, just because there's a lot of words there and short reply doesn't mean we even disagree or that ai answered insufficiently.

"You'd have to amend the NFA to redefine what a firearm is."

"Ok"

That's still not me calling for a ban on all guns.

Just once, while there is still a little momentum, can we just focus on a single issue and do something about guns without all of that other progressive bullshit that turns off 2/3 of the country? This one time not make it "disagree and you're racist". Just once, can we take the win and make the country better for everyone? Please.

Is that what is proposed? I don't think they are attempting any of what I laid out, so what are they doing?

Have measures that annoy and inconvenience gun owners without making a dent. Are they trying to reduce "gun violence" or underlining that the outgroup is icky?

Gonna be a helluva summer in the good ol USA

A string of mass shootings across the U.S. left at least 15 people dead and more than 60 injured over the weekend of June 4-5, according to the Gun Violence Archive, a group that tracks mass shootings.

In Philadelphia, PA, on Saturday night, 3 were killed and 12 injured after multiple shooters fired into a crowd in a popular nightlife area on South Street, according to the AP.

Early Sunday in Chattanooga, TN, 3 were killed and 14 injured near a nightclub, according to local police.

Similar incidents were also registered in several other states, such as Arizona and Georgia. Shootings traditionally begin to increase during the summer, but the bloodshed this weekend is especially notable given that it comes as the country is still reeling from the massacres in Buffalo, Uvalde, and Tulsa.

Why are you being such a dick about it? Just because you don’t believe there is gun violence that doesn’t mean it doesn’t occur. I’m glad you can be so flippant about it.

It's funny you take issue with me instead of the Canadian news aggregator with the creepy fixation/inferiority complex re: everything USA.

I have no idea what's proposed. But I don't disagree with any of this.

What you replied to was my recap of Crickets stupid video.
