18,000 people dead. If only somethin could have been done....

Suicides are about 55% of that. Not saying that to any way distract from the issue, but for clarity for those who don't know how those numbers work.
A suicide is not a mass shooting.

Sorry, should have bolded this.

It's their right to be in that group, Dev.

When they give you a reason why they're in that group and can't explain/defend it, then it's a joke.

Every time he brings it up, I buy an AR to give away to a right-thinking person who doesn’t already own one. Keep up the great work!

I suspect the list of normal, "should have seen them by now" movies for me looks a lot like dad's, but then there are some really weird or just plain niche ones I know by heart.

"His government is proposing a new law that would freeze private ownership of all short-barrelled firearms. The legislation would not ban the ownership of handguns outright - but would make it illegal to buy them."

So basically only the rich will have guns... which makes sense for his whole Great Reset thing.
