THE Gun Thread
May 15, 2022 at 9:30 am
Want to praise/vilify firearms?
Got some insult you want to hurl at the NRA or those idiots "The Brady Bunch"?
Want to build a AR-15 or melt all guns down and make industrial strength dildos out of the steel???
Post it here.
Then it won' t be necessary to muck up the other threads.
....
And mods - it might be worth putting this up as a sticky - to see if it cuts down on derailments...
Feel free to modify, use or disregard this idea in anyway you see fit...

In my opinion , the 2nd Ammendment should be de facto abolished, to limit the owning of guns to the "militia only". Of course, a new Constitutional Ammendment would be needed to do this.

Unfortunately when things like this are said, the worshipers get BS images in their head of dictatorships and oppression. They do not understand they are literally trying to give rights to an object, although they would claim they are not doing that. You can't point out to them our western pluralistic, and free allies don't have a 2nd amendment, still allow for firearm ownership, but don't hand them out blindly and sit on "no record".

Smart guns would help reduce generalized gun violence -- stolen guns figure in many crimes -- but with 300 million dumb guns out there, nothing will change any time soon, especially with regard to mass shootings.

One thing I love to do to the worshipers is to act like I am clinically insane, then I ask them if I should be allowed to own a firearm. Of course they say "No, you should not be allowed". Then I remind them that I have no criminal record and could go out and buy a firearm legally right now.
