    When paired with other it will be more effective.

    I'm afraid if none of it ever happens it won't be very effective. We'll just end up becoming more and more authoritarian.

    I have considerable doubt that they'll both happen within decades. Continuing to go after law abiding gun owners will only contribute to the polarization.

    Well, it's a start. I can't imagine even being able to hold onto a rapid fire 30-06. I used to own a bolt action 30-06 as a deer rifle...and just ONE shot kicks like a mule on steroids.

    Good video in the link;

    How is this possible? They have gun control that outlaws large capacity magazines, prohibits buying guns for anybody under 21, universal background checks, and there is a 3 day waiting period.

    Surely this must be fake news?

    Only ten people were injured; imagine how bad it would have been without those laws

    Was the shooter using a musket then?

    *Edit* Nope. It looks like they were using the same kinds of guns that kill 99% of gun victims and that none of the gun control measures address.

    And this was a drug/gang shooting, so you know, these are probably all legally purchased and registered guns the buyers waited 3 days to receive.

    Oh no, because the NRA has successfully ended federal gun reform people are easily able to import guns from out of state which is somehow a reason why everyone should just fucking give up on gun reform. It’s nihilistic.

    I get you really love guns but don’t be disingenuous.

    The NRA has no power except the people who support it are of a like mind (I am not one of those people, btw).

    The NRA isn't even a top 100 political contributor as far as I can tell.

    This has nothing to do with how I feel about guns and everything to do with how I feel about freedom and individual rights and corruption. And the biggest thing my position has to do with is how much I would actually like to solve the problem.

    And the idea that restricting something that can be made in an afternoon in any garage in the country and that a hundred million people consider a vital part of their culture is the only way forward is just getting in the way of the real solutions.

    Not that it has never happened, but I don't recall an NRA member actually committing a mass shooting.

    Make no mistake. If you are lying to the population in order to restrict their rights, you are the bad guy.

    Fact check: Biden makes 5 false claims about guns
    The US medical system is literally collapsing, and this is the bullshit our President is focused on...

    This is why "Republican" or "MAGA" craziness is going to destroy this country. We don't have a party that is actually for the people. It's all just a show. So Dems will never gain enough trust to offset the rules our founding fathers laid out, or to change those rules. Which, as far as I can tell, is the way they BOTH want it.
