You have to blame race somehow. Try again.
Guns kill people. People don't kill people.
Dude that argument is like 10 years ago.
Does that make it untrue?

It's obsolete. We blame people now.

That seems more like a right wing talking point. There is a woke mob, but it's not as representative as people on the right say it is.

I know. I've been saying that cops killing unarmed black men and women was starting to seem problematic for a couple of months now.

Ok, I can buy into that. Personal responsibility for one's actions... Man, that just seems like MAGA talk.
So we can probably do away with all these silly threats of increased gun control and changing or restricting the Second Amendment now that we can all agree that guns aren't just killing people all willy-nilly, right?

We probably have to take guns away from people who might kill other people, sorry to say.

Everyone is a
potential killer. What would be far easier is simply buying and mothballing the gun manufacturers, then do 3x value buy-backs. I know I got laughed off here for suggesting that years ago, but the total value of the whole industry is only $60B and it wouldn't be a violation of the 2nd to do it.
Cops would be a lot less likely to shoot if there were fewer guys firing at them.

We've established the guy is an asshole. Do you think life altering mob justice is what's really appropriate here.
