it doesn't even take significant amounts of cash

Until the black start taking responsibility for their own communities again the problem is not going to go away.

Going after straw purchases is a big one, but of course if police start doing that we’re gunna hear cries of racism

The real question is will the police respond with “tough shit” or will they cave to the complaints

But if they start enforcing the laws we have how are they going to put new ones in place.

1) Make it so that the depressed or suicidal can seek council without repercussion in regards to firearm rights
2) Push societal changes to be both more open to seeking help for such things while also encouraging people to take more responsibility
3) [a second piece of #1] If a person is determined to be of significant risk and needs to have their weapons confiscated at least temporarily, make it easy and straightforward to get their property back

Nah dude; targeting the black/latino gang community is not what I had in mind

That's a fucking problem that I don't have a good solution for

Pretty much anything I could conceive of that would work would be inherently racist

and that's not really where I want to go with shit

curb your supremecy

The gang problem will continue until the communities start to work with the police to fight them.

Honestly most people with severe mental illness should need a qualified doctor’s approval for firearm ownership. The problem is if you start a program like that are you just going to deter people from getting treatment

ashkenazi jews are more intelligent than whites on average

tbh just always more inteligent

you don't even need the average part

See, that's what I'm saying, you need to get rid of the deterrents for people seeking treatment

a bit of a paradox though

what if giving someone guns boosts their serotonin

and gets them out of a depression spiral

with firearms getting more stigmatized across the US; it's less and less likely folks will seek treatment (Because they find some solace in that right; even though they're pretty much holding on to their grave)

yes; it does

a lot of PTSD folks from the mil are like that

I think guns need to be more normalized across the board

i grew up in a libtard household and never actually went to a range or anything but i don't feel they are dangerous nor make me feel powerful to hold one

Your family members do though.

mhmm

I would say you're a femboyfox outlier

i played too many shooters so the first thing that comes to mind would be strategy if anything

I went to college late; and I had built up quite an arsenal then

OH wow sed works

That's fuckin' cool.

Anyways; yeah, Like a /handful/ of fuckers from my classes had even *touched* a firearm

minuscule.

They were all afraid of them "Why do I need them?" "Do you really think you'll be able to defend yourself from *the government*?"

etc etc etc

i've watched quite a bit of liveleak videos with criminals

over and over tired cliches of the same talking points heard from /k/ flamebait

it kinda conditioned me to make better decisions when encountering the police

lol

ie don't tense up and cooperate as much as possible
