Instead of targeting the object or people en mass, why not profile for high-risk targets and apply injunctions on them instead?
@Jack of Trades Of course, but I never said you couldn't.
@Marushia Dark What, like some kind of insurance?
@Marushia Dark Because there are millions of people in the US and one psycho can kill hundreds of people.
Perhaps we discriminate based on the people most likely to shoot some people up? :3
The point of most legislation I support is to weed out the likely shooters _when they buy the guns._
@Hylia You're arguing the wrong idea. The one regarding "best designed to take human life". You clearly know fuck all about guns my friend.
An injunction is essentially what people are asking for when they propose red flag laws. But you can already do this under existing common law
@Hylia Plenty we can do. Extend the time for background checks.
Why extend the time when you can just improve the speed and quality of the check by making the lists more efficient and use better tech to streamline the data faster
@Jack of Trades No, I'm arguing the _right_ to present that argument without being compared to Stalin. People are equating me with the most strawmanned incarnations of the argument I am defending, and then either calling me an idiot, or saying I support authoritarians (latter was earlier on.) Also, this chat is moving rather fast and it's difficult to keep up.
This is a laxidazical pace, first off. And I meant the one I made @Hylia .
@Marushia Dark Sounds like a novel idea. Let's push push for that.
Well, I would argue that supporting gun control TACITLY and UNWITTINGLY supports authoritarianism as the very least. But I also try to educate people rather than ridicule them
You don't have a right to talk to me about fuck all. You've got the right to do that to the gov't 😉 But the fact that you think one kind of gun is more deadly than the other well.
@Jack of Trades Yeah, but a lot'd being said and I'm a slow typer.
And a perfectionist.
Not my problem.
Be nice, Jack. Win hearts and minds
@Marushia Dark FUck you
***nigger***
@Hylia Watch this
I'm probably the only person on this server who can unironically ask this: "Did you just assume my race?"
More Guns = Less Crimes
@Marushia Dark I don't care if you're a blonde aryan. I'd call you a nigger regardless.
Nigger: Not just for black people
So we're clear, I'm a 2A absolutist. So from what I've read thus far, you and I probably agree. All I'm suggesting is that hurling insults doesn't help endear people to your way of thinking and it's a better strategy to take the high ground
@Marushia Dark Let me explain to you how disagreeable I am and how little of a fuck I give.
Extremely and 0
Ok, well, you like winning, right? So think of it as being in your self-interest. It's a more successful strategy.
Winning? no
I don't think you can win an internet chat
Coming out on top, then
looking better in the eyes of people
Dropping savage bombs
>looking better in the eyes of the people
Allow me to refer you to my second point
Yeah, I realized that as soon as I typed it
