Don Quixote lecturing the windmills

I laughed. Well done. I admit there is some truth.

I also just like the opposite of an echo chamber. We all should.

All the rights in the bill of rights are recognized as god given.

Your reading comprehension is shit if you believe that. God isn’t mentioned anywhere in the constitution. Take a lap

[MagnificentUnicorn]

All the rights in the bill of rights are recognized as god given. They can be infringed upon, but are inaliable. This has been the meaning of the entire bill of rights since it was written.

You have the right to disagree, but don't act like this is some brand new absurdist take on things. it’s the traditional one.

Do you think that things may have changed in the US since the Bill of Rights was penned? If you’re hung up on the language revisit the part of the second amendment that talks about a well regulated militia. You can’t have it both ways you disingenuous pig fucker

[schuss]

Strawman. No one said instant. Get real stop being intellectually dishonest.

Unlike every one of your arguments? You choose irrational fear of an imagined Boogeyman scenario instead of what's killing people in the here and now.

USA number one cause of death in children. The general welfare>muh rawts when it comes to this threat.

OK, I'll let you know. Probably mid next week I'll disappear from this place again for at least a few weeks.

Enjoy your meal.

The truth is you guys want to get rid of all guns even if it has negative consequences, including genocide and ethnic cleansing. Its worth it to you.

Oh that's the truth is it?

Try this one on for size: the truth is you are an ill-informed fucking windbag who apparently doesn't have a grasp on reality.

My ignore list, it grows.

[J. Barron DeJong]

You choose irrational fear of an imagined Boogeyman scenario instead of what's killing people in the here and now.

Exactly.

Sure there may be 10’s of thousands of preventable deaths happening each year, right here, right now.

But whatabout my hypothetical genocide of the future?! What about my hypothetical descent into fascism?!

Fuck off.

Do you guys have to keep quoting Elroy?

When's the last time a Marxist/totalitarian/dictatorship laid waste to a school/shopping center/hospital/church/child's birthday party/etc??? Not lately because some ammosexual beat them to it..

Fear.

It all boils down to being scared. The pro-gun people are the most fearful and scared bunch of dimwits this side of the nuthouse.

Is there one argument in today’s world that doesn’t boil down to “I’m scared of xxxxx and want to be able to protect myself”? Except for hunters and sports shooting.

I admit when I got my AK47 16 years ago I just loved blasting pumpkins and dead logs with it. Then, 14 years ago I bought a Glock because mass public shootings were becoming more frequent and the media was hyper focused on creating fear for ratings and it worked on me. I got a carry permit, packed a Glock around for like a month and realized I was a goddam pussy for doing it. Guns have been in a safe since except for target practice and cleaning.

Never ends. Such bullshit.

Re: Firearm Suicides

The percentage of people who survive a suicide attempt and then retry successfully is super low. There was a study done after they installed the nets under the Golden Gate Bridge, essentially every jumper caught by the net has not re-attempted suicide.

The reason fewer women commit suicide than men is because women more commonly take pills (they don’t want to leave their family a mess) and men shoot themselves. Shooting yourself has a better chance of working…

Restricting firearm availability would certainly reduce suicides.

this times 1000

Fear of the other colored Sneetch. Fear of the gubmnt. Fear of the masturbatory fantasy civil war that the right is pushing. Fear of an un-stacked supreme court...

[SumJongGuy]

Fear that America is getting too gay for them to handle..

[mcphee]

Fear of becoming the minority

Fear of becoming the minority

Bingo

Fear of becoming the minority

They are the minority, they're scared of fading away into oblivion

[AK47bp]

Just in the last page or two someone is scared of being ethnically cleansed and also has a fear of being a victim of genocide.

It’s unreal how scared and fragile these people are, it’s almost like they’ve already determined they are victims to these hypothetical scenarios, therefore their actions are justified.

Chicken Little shits

You guys railing against maga gun nuts but all the shooters are liberal confused white kids?

SJG sounds like a mass shooter.

Inalienable is the word used. Meaning you can infringe on them but you can't take the right away. Same thing, without the religious connotation. Yawn.

Out of curiosity how do know if these shooters are all liberal?

Is there a list?

Many are just kids.

Serious question for you, can you link to the data?

Sure you can. Theyre amendments. Just like the 18th and 21st. Get enough votes and it’s bye, bye, bye black toys. So no, it’s not the same. Even though you claimed they were god given
