Yes because our government is only equipped to deal with 1 issue at a time...

The gun laws in US are joke, why even allow people to have guns? what is police for?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Police is for robbing people and slapping labels on them to artificially reduce their market value. They're not gonna do anything about mass shootings because they won't be there when they happen and don't really care so long as their own friends and family are fed. They're also not going to support disarming the population because they will lose that fight by numbers.

Centrists: "No but really, trans people playing sports is a massive problem, one that we should devote many resources to solving."

Just dropping in to ask if anyone has that image. I need it to win several arguments I'm currently having on the internet.

Simple way to stop mass shootings is to ban guns like anywhere else on the world.

When is enough going to be enough?

The 2nd Amendment was a mistake. It’s time to repeal it.

It has taken on a life of its own and has been twisted to the breaking point by gun nutters. It is never enough for them and any push back is like pulling teeth. They have become the terrorist at this point and there is no reason to negotiate anymore.

That's not going to happen in the lifetime of anyone who can read this comment.

Because it requires more than a majority of Congress, it also requires 3/4 of the 50 states to vote to ratify it. Only takes 13 states voting NO to prevent it, and there are plenty more red states than that who would never give up our rights so foolishly.

It will never be enough. Look at the responses in this thread and elsewhere. It will never be enough. There is no price too high that it won't happily be paid. There is no regulation small enough that it will be accepted. They have made that exceptionally clear.

There is no negotiation with them. You will never convince them. It doesn't matter if the regulation works or not.
