..that's kinda already been established

2018-02-22 17:43:59 UTC  

uggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhh

2018-02-22 17:44:59 UTC  

Illegal American gun retailers

2018-02-22 18:03:19 UTC  

You can buy full auto weapons in the us

2018-02-22 18:03:28 UTC  

But it is a different process

2018-02-22 18:04:25 UTC  

It is not an easy thing to do though; rockin' up to a gunstore and being like "ayyyyyyy lmao gimme dat Browing .50 over there"

2018-02-22 18:05:14 UTC  

arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh

2018-02-22 18:05:24 UTC  

don't even know why I bothered trying to watch that CNN thing

2018-02-22 18:05:43 UTC  

"no semi automatic or automatic guns"

2018-02-22 18:05:50 UTC  

soooo..

2018-02-22 18:06:03 UTC  

yeah, I know, it excludes lever-action, bolt action etc

2018-02-22 18:06:07 UTC  

but judging from this comment as a whole

2018-02-22 18:06:16 UTC  

this fucker doesn't even know what in the blue fuck he's talking about

2018-02-22 18:06:21 UTC  

so he might as well be saying 'no guns'

2018-02-22 18:06:34 UTC  

"militaristic weapons"

2018-02-22 18:07:01 UTC  

Want to talk about gun crime?

2018-02-22 18:07:40 UTC  

not really

2018-02-22 18:07:46 UTC  

we'd be here for the next five hours

2018-02-22 18:07:52 UTC  

and it's 4am

2018-02-22 18:07:55 UTC  

Why not mention the fact hand guns are responsible for the majority of it?

2018-02-22 18:08:07 UTC  

It was a rhetoric question

2018-02-22 18:08:16 UTC  

:P

2018-02-22 18:08:50 UTC  

No one mentions hand guns in these debates

2018-02-22 18:09:04 UTC  

"do you think we should be able to buy nukes?!?!?!?!?"
"well alright then, let's ban the personal ownership of nuclear weapons. Happy now?"
"well... no.."
"SO WHY THE FUCK DID YOU BRING IT UP, DUMMY"

2018-02-22 18:09:11 UTC  

there's a reasoning behind that

2018-02-22 18:09:17 UTC  

It is always abou these feel good legislations

2018-02-22 18:09:24 UTC  

focus on the spectacle

2018-02-22 18:09:28 UTC  

the spectacle of mass shootings

2018-02-22 18:09:48 UTC  

use that as a vector to spread your gun control (I hate using this word because it sounds so Alex Jones-y now) agenda

2018-02-22 18:09:58 UTC  

Also I dont think any of these laws could survive a constitutional challenge

2018-02-22 18:10:13 UTC  

but consider if someone who is pro-2A just said "yeah, sure, let's ban long rifles. happy now?"

2018-02-22 18:10:19 UTC  

and they'd have to admit they're not happy

2018-02-22 18:10:28 UTC  

because most of them *do* want to get rid of handguns and the like too

2018-02-22 18:10:37 UTC  

But you can't win popular opinion in that fashion

2018-02-22 18:10:46 UTC  

Start with scary black 'military' rifles

2018-02-22 18:11:13 UTC  

reminds me of the abortion debate, and how quickly it wheels to "what about rape, incest and the health of the mother?"

2018-02-22 18:11:34 UTC  

If you just go "alright, let's make those legal, and make all other forms of abortion illegal. so you're happy now, right?"

2018-02-22 18:11:43 UTC  

the answer is gonna be "well... actually.."
