2·10 hours agoJust asking the question is interpreted as supporting draconian gun control. Or, worse, any gun control is seen as draconian.
Dems get control of VA…first thing they do is an AWB which doesn’t do shit for gun violence. So yes the slope isn’t just slippery, it’s usually a cliff.
I’m fine with right to gun ownership for most people, but put some limits around mental health and violent history. There are people who own guns for lots of legitimate reasons from hunting to self defense to fun. It’s all good when those people are stable.
Who’s the ones saying that you’re mentally stable? Remember maga thinks anyone who is LGBTQ+ is mentally ill.
People who have a violent history are already not allowed to own firearms.
And I agree many of the proposals do little to attempt actual solutions.
The solutions are things that don’t need more firearm legislation.
It is odd that the 3 big players are trying to rush to IPO… probably to dump their shit and cash out before the bag holders have time to sell… I’ve got a feeling they know it’s going to crash soon.
And this is why Dems will continue to lose the vote of the single issue voters who are voting red because of guns.
Stop trying to ban them or create bullshit laws that do not effect the violence. All it does is lose votes and seats.
Focus on the shit that will effect the violence as a whole. Single payer, help unions, spend way more on education, smaller class sizes, end the war on drugs, safety nets for people…a ton of things that will get votes and will actually drop the rate of violence in the USA…but nope go run around shouting about banning black plastic rifles cause “think of the children”…
And those of us who don’t have it but live with someone who does and doesn’t think they need meds to help… it’s a terrible disorder that doesn’t just effect the person who has it. I really really hate that it’s downplayed so much on the Internet.
82·21 hours agoI grabbed it on sale for like $10, even for $10 it wasn’t really worth it. So much broken shit, and then almost nothing to do.
Please do this and have a shitload of flashing lights, and let it be 95+ outside, then let his brain cook itself while he rambles on, only like a dementia riddled pedo can.
1·2 days agoWhich is completely irrelevant, since the claim is for age 1-19.
Yes it is relevant, because it drives a false narrative. People don’t hear suicide, they hear “4 year olds are being gunned down”.
Duh of course it has?!?! Only sick countries like USA or very poor countries don’t.
Cool so you understand something at least on the topic.
Again completely irrelevant if it also is for over 90 year olds. This is for 1-19.
It’s not, as I explained above.
It is as the article states, hildren and adolescents. How the fuck is that so hard for you to grasp?
Again… because it’s not the same as a literal child being killed by a firearm and a teenager that commits suicide. They’re two massively different issues.
Yes because USA is a sick society. Unfortunately there are no real signs of that fundamentally changing.
Plenty of us are trying to change it, but all you are doing is feeding into the “guns are the issue and the only solution is to ban them” agenda that’s being continually pushed, so the ultra rich can divide the people while not actually focusing on the why.
Yep, it’s terrible. Poverty is driving our violence. If we focused as much money on our inner cities as we do with rich neighborhoods, I guarantee you violence would drop drastically.
No I don’t it clearly states already in the first line of the article:
Children are in that line…which is not true. Firearms for children are not their number one cause. Adolescents 15-19 yes, because of suicide.
I just checked the causes of death for my own country, and firearms or other weapons don’t even register.
I’m betting your own country also has safety nets, a focus on healthcare, education and not locking up everyone for minor drug offenses…
The reasons are Cancer, traffic accidents, other accidents, suicide. Below 1 year, it’s near 100% birth defects or whats called cradle death, where the baby dies suddenly in its sleep for no known reason.
Which is what ours is for children.
Yes here too is the highest rate among the 1-19 year olds also between 15-19. But NONE are from firearms! And so few from other weapons that it isn’t even in the statistic.
Which is great, but the USA doesn’t have a firearm issue, we have a societal one. We don’t support our citizens and we lock up the parents or have them working 3 jobs. We create broken homes and ignore education.
The fact remains that USA is a sick society, that lets its children be shot by legal firearms,
You didn’t but just at the start here you said:
No I don’t it clearly states already in the first line of the article:
So which is it? You know it’s suicide from adolescents or children being shot?
and allows extreme poverty that increases violent crimes.
Couldn’t agree with you more.
The problem here is your thinking prevent you from realizing how sick USA is as a society.
Not even close. All I’m expressing is that guns are here to stay, and more people own them more than ever, instead of spending the political capital on trying to ban them, we should be spending it on fixing our society…aka the why people turn to violence and suicide here in the USA…and I can tell you this, it’s not because of guns.
The problem here is your thinking it’s a toddler being killed by a firearm. It’s not. That largest group is 15-19 year olds. Who unfortunately are the high risk group for suicide. We should be focused on how to solve the why part of this group committing suicide, instead of focusing political capital on trying to ban guns.
Lol that’s how far I got and just fucking Roflcoptered…like how fucking dumb can you be…
Where’s that chart that shows that like 40% of all the llm data comes from reddit.
Your link is for Hamtramck
My bad, Hamtramck is still historically a dem stronghold.
“Scholars”?!?
You didn’t even read the link did you…
No one is debating that sometimes Muslims vote progressive or something progressives vote for Muslims. The answer will never be 100% either way.
The left gives islamists a pass a whole lot. Let’s stop pretending they don’t.
You said you wanted to talk about your link, but you’ve got the location wrong you don’t understand it was conservative politicians elected by conservative voters and I’m struggling to think of any excuse for why you think that link is valid
Again, Hamtramck is a blue voting area.

I’ve sure as shit wasted enough time as you as an individual though
What?
First off Dearborn is not conservative… they’re historically dem…they voted 68% for Biden in the election. So no you’re completely wrong.
Second, This isn’t something that’s not been discussed and is a new thing. Plenty of scholars have written about it.
Yep grab a mk3s from FB marketplace for like $200 and print like mad.
Hell no, Obama isn’t a Muslim and we need more Mamdanis. Did you even read the link? Mamdani didn’t spew his religion around at all, he’s kept church and state separate like it should be. I just hope he doesn’t get bogged down doing the good he has already done by the Dems in NY who hate him.
You’re doing the same shit that other progressives do, afraid to call out islamists and give them a pass cause you think you will get called a racist. A right wing authoritarian prick is a right wing authoritarian prick no matter what color their skin is.
Didn’t say Muslims did I? I said islamists. And as I pointed out in the article I posted, the left elected islamists because they can’t seem to tell the difference.
It’s really not. The left has been tolerable to islamists for a while now. All for fear of being called racist. Same goes for Israel, AIPAC is still around with huge dem support. Thankfully a lot of the left has full blown rejected Israel now, but they still don’t seem to see that islamists are right wing and not on the side of progress and peace.
What sucks is that it ruins relationships for those of us who know the person has it but they don’t think they do or use the Internet to do a “lol I have ADHD, what’s your super power?”. I have a ton of sympathy for you all who know you have it and want help but have docs who think you’re just fine, because everyone these days runs around saying they have it.
If you can’t tell I’m dealing with this situation, and they are basically pushing me away because they think they’re just fine, and I’m the issue. Yet all their relationships always end in the other person being the issue, and everyone being against them. ADHD sucks and it’s so shit how social media has turned it into just some joke. Like it’s a “hah” disorder and not a life altering disorder that needs serious help.
