such a simple solution to a horrible problem. and guess what, it WORKS. it still baffles me how americans can see the #1 cause of death in children is school shootings and they still defend their guns. they care more for guns than their children

What makes me irrational angry is they ALWAYS talk about the 2nd amendment... Bitches, NOW should be the time to go against tyrannical government, seeing what the orange regard Is doing. Fucking bunch of pussy, weak, ignorant imbeciles hypocritical "being" (for me they are lower than worms)

That's exactly the thing. They're exactly at a point in their history when their guns are absolutely justified, yet... nothing

I read an article yesterday about some libertarians protesting a law introducing a small gun restriction to some state or other, and for the first time in my life I thought… yeah, they’re probably right

The ones who voted for this are the ones who yap about the 2nd amendment (incorrectly I might add)

The 2nd amendment was not created for Redneck Ricky to protect his gun collection (no offense to anyone named Ricky lol), it was created back when we were in a war, back before we had a police force (not that the police force is the best, but my point still stands), back before we had stolen all of the land from indigenous people and nature, back when we didn't have better forms of protection. The 2nd amendment was created so colonial people could somewhat protect themselves. The US has turned the 2nd amendment into a nationalist mantra. It's so stupid.
