Ban semi automatic rifles, high-capacity magazines, and body armor. Require a special permit, so you can go fire them at the shooting range if you like.

Universal background checks. No more sales at gun shows. Minimum age of 21 to buy a firearm.

I know the gun porn guys will say it's impossible, we can't do it, but don't believe them. They don't understand Americans can do hard things, and can accomplish great things.
We don't want to do it and it's not happening, get over it. We should ban banning things.
This!


Plus, he asserts, by proxy, that it's the law abiding citizens/gun owners committing the crimes (…and we all know that isn't true). Just about everything he mentioned/suggested is already instituted in states like California and New York, two of the country's bluest Democrat run, crime infested shit holes. I'm sure the laws in [Chicago] Illinois are very similar. Crime is off the charts in all three places. More laws will do nothing.

TL;DR - Criminals, by default, do not adhere to laws. More laws will do nothing to curtail them..
Like many things the alt right likes, it's just hard to do things, so we shouldn't do it. We don't need a well regulated militia per the Second Amendment. We can't wear masks. Vaccines are scary! It's all just so hard. We can't do hard things. :

What a crock of crap. From whenever the period is that y'all refer to that is MAGA, I think the people from that period of time that you want to glorify would be dismayed and/or would laugh at you because you're such candy asses.
Pablo sounds like he's in tears of the thought of not being able to have his AR 15.
This is a policy issue…….a deductive reasoning issue……not a partisan issue. Like I said in an earlier post, there is a difference between hard and unrealistic. The only way to significantly reduce gun deaths - in theory - is to close the borders and rid the entire country of firearms. That is unrealistic and nearly impossible (…and the only reason I didn't render it impossible is because I try my best not to speak in absolutes).


P.S. Not to really delve back into the whole COVID issue, but a few knowns render the whole thing a fraud: 1) face masks do little to stop the transmission (…unless it's an N95, and 99% of people don't wear N95's), 2) the vaccines do nothing to stop actual transmission, so what's the point!?; natural immunity is the way to go anyway (…and that's echoed by the scientific community, at least those not on Fauci's payroll), and 3) it has already been revealed that COVID is man-made. Fauci's emails, Biden's intel directives, etc. have already revealed what all of us who could see the forest through the trees already knew. Biggest scam ever using a biological weapon produced in the Wuhan lab.
