@KaiserDoom A meme is worth a thousand words.

I love stonetoss

2019-09-14 02:05:34 UTC  

Damn they're right. We need gatlin guns to deal with the auto muskets

2019-09-14 02:05:40 UTC  

So I heard something today that I think is a good thought.

2019-09-14 02:05:47 UTC  

We had them in the Civil War

2019-09-14 02:05:49 UTC  

Clearly, we dont' care what the rounders think

2019-09-14 02:05:51 UTC  

*founders

2019-09-14 02:06:09 UTC  

Because we gave non landing owning non white people rights and citizenship

2019-09-14 02:06:11 UTC  

We care what the Founders think when it aligns with what we think

2019-09-14 02:06:20 UTC  

@Marushia Dark Nah, I think people make it up

2019-09-14 02:06:43 UTC  

Honestly, the Founders are just an appeal to authority fallacy

2019-09-14 02:07:09 UTC  

Speaking of which, did y'all watch the Hamilton vs. Satoshi debate?

2019-09-14 02:07:26 UTC  

Who vs Who?

2019-09-14 02:07:39 UTC  

That doesn't answer my question lol

2019-09-14 02:07:41 UTC  

Alex.... Okayu, I was going to make a joke but

2019-09-14 02:07:42 UTC  

Well

2019-09-14 02:07:50 UTC  

Alexander Hamilton vs the guy who invented Bitcoin

2019-09-14 02:08:07 UTC  

There we go lol

2019-09-14 02:08:14 UTC  

It's done by the guys who make Epic Rap Battles of History and it's really good

2019-09-14 02:08:29 UTC  

listening now lol

2019-09-14 02:14:01 UTC  

That was actually pretty good

2019-09-14 02:15:01 UTC  

I'm not positive, but I think EpicLloyd leans libertarian, since they do many bits that dump on communism, making capitalism look good in contrast. They really stealman the opposition in their raps

2019-09-14 02:16:01 UTC  

Another good one is Keyenes vs. Hayek

Yeah, I'm not sure about the AR-15 _in particular,_ but the weapons and ammunition _most effective_ at taking life should _at least_ have _some_ regulation, is my point. I never said I necessarily agreed with Beto's policy to the letter, or even at all, just that it's not a good idea to let any wackadoodle legitimately get weapons that are _solely_ designed for taking human lives en masse. Think of it this way: it is illegal for anyone to drive a car without a license 'cuz it's dangerous if they don't know what they're doing. Well, if you want a dangerous weapon capable of killing hundreds of innocent people in mere minutes, let's make sure you have the sufficient knowledge and understanding to use it safely, as well as the lack of any desire to _deliberately_ start killing people. And if there are so many rocket launchers out there that they're cheaper than oreos for criminals, maybe trying to reduce their availability in order to at least make them more expensive on the black market isn't the worst idea in the world and is at least as worth considering at the debate table as
Also, been typing very slowly for all this time because I am multitasking. If you've been hyping this up, sorry, but you're gonna be disappointed. My point essentially boils down to this:
Your right to arms is not so absolute that debate over the most excessive weapons designed solely for war and how accessible they should be to the general public is equivalent to authoritarianism. I mean, for gods' sake, gay people's right to not be sent against their will to straight camp or trans people's right to exist are defended with less passion than any ol' wackadoodle's right to bullets that explode inside the people they hit. I _get_ that there is a debate to be had here, but my lord, people who argue in favor of restrictions you disagree with are _not_ authoritarians; that's like calling the most moderate conservative a Nazi.

2019-09-14 02:16:41 UTC  

Kek.

2019-09-14 02:17:08 UTC  

@Hylia Why not take the ones that kill the most people overall?

2019-09-14 02:17:28 UTC  

Also @Hylia AR15s weren't designed for war

2019-09-14 02:17:40 UTC  

But good on you for trying.

2019-09-14 02:18:12 UTC  

Again, I don't give a fuck about the AR-15 in particular. Honestly, I agree that it's gotten a bad rap.

2019-09-14 02:18:18 UTC  

@Hylia "designed for war" Technology evolves. At one point, muskets were the forefront of military-grade weaponry and they barely worked half the time

2019-09-14 02:18:31 UTC  

I'll reply in pm since I know others will reply here

2019-09-14 02:18:46 UTC  

and a lot of your comments stem from again not understanding guns at all

2019-09-14 02:19:04 UTC  

Yeah, kind of a shitty standard. @Hylia If someone is trying to bust into my house, I am going to use overwhelming force to protect me and mine. I'm an under no obligation to do anything else and should not be obligated to.

2019-09-14 02:19:04 UTC  

But then again, the exploding bullets that the shooter with the AR-15 used probably aren't regulated enough themselves.

2019-09-14 02:19:29 UTC  

Instead of targeting the object or people en mass, why not profile for high-risk targets and apply injunctions on them instead?

2019-09-14 02:19:41 UTC  

@Jack of Trades Of course, but I never said you couldn't.
