I didn't say anything about all police. I said we can't count on them as a group. I didn't say they are all bad people. They have proven repeatedly that we can't rely on them. Again, 9mm is very rarely used for hunting. In most cases it would be illegal to use it for hunting. That's not the purpose for those 1000 rounds.
Sure. But it will restrict law abiding owners far more. And if we can't count on police.... That's not a good ratio. Criminals will have guns and ammo and we'd be at their mercy. That's why something like this will never happen. Not enough people are interested in being in that situation.
I'm glad they are. Not all cops are bad. Many are brave and would've done what cops in Uvalde failed to do. It's the cops in Uvalde that need to be taken to task, I agree.
Texas police are holding a press conference right now. They are now claiming they were trying to negotiate with the gunman, that's why they didn't rush the classroom. But the gunmen wasn't responding to the attempts to negotiate and kept firing at them when they approached the classroom so they pulled back and tried to negotiate some more. Fucking clown show.
Because we have a codified right to child porn? I get that you're joking, but I'm telling you the reasons we will not be able to restrict the number of guns. There isn't enough support for it and too many people want guns. Anything short of a drastic restriction in the number of Firearms will not result in "statistically significant" improvements. Which will result in the law sunsetting or being repealed.
So include severe (as in serious prison time) for making guns and magazines, or for buying on the black market. And if a gun or magazine you made made, or bought on the black market is used in a shooting, you too go to jail whether you pulled the trigger or not. In many states I can (or soon will be) put in prison for simply driving a woman to get an abortion. Same frickin' difference. The ONLY thing stopping America from doing the right thing is that "we" don't want to. Everything else is extraneous bullshit.
Negotiating? That's the best their sorry asses could come up with? How and why would you try to negotiate with someone who has already killed children? Who is in a school with children?
Oh you mean The political Supreme Court and the conveniently divided up and mapped out districts that prevent anything from being done on this?
How could you prove they made it? There would be no markings. And they can't restrict your right to manufacture your own, as that would be violating the 2nd ammendment. People think this stuff is so easy, but it's just not. It is incredibly hard to do any kind of effective gun control without violating the 2nd ammendment, or looking like you intend to do so. And that isn't going to change without a constitutional convention and a 2/3 vote. And nobody wants a constitutional convention because then everything in the constitution can be changed... It's too risky.
Then somebody can challenge those restrictions and risk the Supreme Court ruling on favor of children and dangerous people having the right to bare arms as well. That's not my thing.
