gun owners and their goddamn smugness about features that literally nobody else could give a fuck about are the worst thing about gun culture in this country. i'll allow a fucking mass shooting a day if it stops people named porch crumpton going "well, actually, it's .223 caliber rounds from a fn-384 with oscillating flange comportment" every time some news story focuses on the larger issue and not which flashlight mount was on what stock

also guns remain fucking stupid

This article touches on that - but asks the obvious question - is it an access issue, rather than a weapon issue
Yeah, this is actually pretty good. The whole "assault weapons ban" business is basically leftist populism - it's a meaningless term that just sounds scary and creates the illusion that you're accomplishing something.

If one of these pinko fuck the bill of rights decisions means keeping it out of the hands of as little as one mouth-breathing retard that's either psychotic or not sure how to use it, I'm into it. Unless he accidentally shoots himself first.

I had a friend fellow student who read a few issues of The Punisher's Armory and he suddenly thought himself a gun aficionado, despite never being near a gun in real life (probably still hasn't). I don't remember what was going on, but we had to create a character for something, and the jackass put an exuberant amount of time and detail on the thing's handgun, and nothing else.

Sure. But the question, really, is what'll work and what won't. I'm not about to act like I can tell Americans how to solve this uniquely American problem, but a) as the article DD posted argues very concisely, "assault weapons" is a completely meaningless term and b) "ban guns" sounds to me a lot like "ban drugs", and that never worked either.

See, here's the thing. I live in Switzerland. Gun nuts in the US love to cite Switzerland as an example of why gun control doesn't work - we have very little gun control (though most of what the NRA says about us is bullshit - the government doesn't require anyone here to keep a full-auto assault rifle in their home) and a very low crime rate. But the thing is, Switzerland also has social security to an extent that would have all of these NRA morons screaming "communism" at the top of their lungs. And I think that's really the difference. Your cut-throat, competitive capitalist society breeds violence, and that's why you have these mass shootings. That's the difference between the US and Switzerland. People here don't fear for their livelihoods the way Americans do, and as a result, we're a less violent society on the whole. I have no idea what that means in terms of fixing the gun violence problem in the US, but it seems to me that it's a symptom of a much larger problem than just guns.

Yeah I know you're really upset those two white guys who were going to blow up a mosque got caught ahead of time so we could be winning again as a race.

Imagine if the pigs spent as much effort trying to catch Muslims before they blew shit up.

But of course, that would be racism

There's absolutely no way in fuck I would live in a country whose prime minister started crying while apologizing to LGBTQIABBQ (for what reason I couldn't possibly guess)

Actually, a YouTube search for "Justin Trudeau crying" yields about a dozen seperate(!!!!!) occasions in which your prime minister started crying

Yeah, I'd rather not live in a country being administered by an international laughingstock

You've really got your finger on the pulse of the world. Never afraid to tell it like it is. So I'm sure you'll speak out about all the gang rape and murder being committed against muslims in Myanmar right now. never let political correctness silence us from confronting RADICAL BUDDHIST TERRORISM

Uhhhhhhh...Trump is the most respected U.S. president internationally of the last two decades bud. At least by real, actual countries like Russia and China. It's only irrelevant third world shitholes like Germany and the U.K. that have bad things to say about him. And even that's not even totally true. All patriotic nationalists all over the world have been energized by Trumpism.

Faaaaaacts buddy.
