Gun Control, meet State Ownership of the means of production! Next stop, utopia
don't need to read past the first paragraph of the article
first, it goes RIGHT into blaming the NRA
because of course it does
but
```
Banning military-style semiautomatic weapons, regulating magazine clips, closing the gun show loophole, and preventing people with domestic violence restraining orders from acquiring weapons might well reduce levels of gun violence—to some extent. But it is hard to argue that these reforms, even if they all went into effect, would do much more than put a modest dent in the problem, and for a simple reason: there are just too many guns floating around.
```
The author clearly does not know what they are talking about
`magazine clips`
Are they worried about people making collages?
That is my biggest fear
Won't somebody please think of the children 😥
lovely how he inadvertently dismisses most of the arguments people use when they advocate gun control...won’t do more than “modestly dent” gun violence stats *tip fedora
I'm more taken aback by his not even attempting to address the underlying social issues driving gun homicide. If you don't, then even if you can magically remove the guns you'll just replace them with bombs, knives, or chemical attacks. We'll have drug dealers doing drive by acid tossing. Frankly I'd rather get shot.
So, you know how you always hear about 'gun deaths' rather than homicides when it comes to gun control, because suicide makes up 2/3 of gun deaths, so it inflates the number? I've also heard that people who live in a household with guns are far more likely to commit suicide, but does anyone know if there's any data that would indicate the number of firearms purchased with the intent of using them for suicide?
Like what percentage of those who commit suicide via gun have purchased a gun within a couple months of doing it?
Pretty sure that would require an investigative study, and that study would have to be approved by ethics boards, and I highly doubt they'd allow that kind of study to be done. Ethical concerns around snooping through gun purchase records of people who killed themselves just to sum it up in a chart and all.
This is why we need mad social scientists.
All the lack of restraint and ethics, but focused on statistics and demographics studies.
Anyone here interested in recovering old Russian nukes and fixing one up?
right then
find a place that we can rent a sub and tender at
smallest tender you can find and sub needs to have 1600m crush depth or above
the nukes are in a fucked sub in the barents sea
oh and the sub needs to have hydrophones
so we can tell if theres a sub guarding the site
Reeeepost
I normally don't do this, but some people don't see it
Only have a couple of hours left
and I really want this one.
Plus I usually get 1 more person to help out when I post it each day.

@FullySemiAutomatic does the contest extend to underage plebs?
I’m gonna keep an eye out for it now
`How old do I have to be to win this firearm?
You must be 18 or older to be eligible to win this sweepstake. This means those of you born after November 13, 2000 are ineligible! But no worries, we will have more sweepstakes in the future!
`
What if I were to enter the contest with an adult as my benefactor?
Who would then pass it down when I was of age?
adam warski, doin' it for free.
