But you people will do absolutely nothing whatsoever to change anything. Absolutely nothing. There is no reason whatsoever to listen to you. You offer nothing. You take no initiative or repsonsibility. Nothing. Nothing at all.
Can you provide proof of this claim? Because all I have ever seen is statistical proof that it did in fact work, and that’s why Republicans needed to sunset it.
Again: playing semantics and deliberately ignoring the argument to make an irrelevant claim is a game that pussy-assed little bitches do. What is being discussed by the grown-ups in the group is something that has NOT been illegal for 100 years and has been a PROVEN success previously. This is the fucking reason it is being discussed.
According to whom, and by what standard? That’s a really generic and platitudinous statement you have made there. What do you consider to be “preventing mass shootings”? Should there be a clause in there that says “please dont commit mass shootings!”?
This is the if not “100% effective then 0% effective” fallacy. It entirely ignores the issue.
Listen very closely: NOBODY. IS. SAYING. ALL. CRIME. WILL. STOP.
Do you understand this? Do you grasp this basic tenet? If so then we can move forward:
The issue being addressed is MASS SHOOTING EFFICIENCY.
MASS.
EFFICIENCY.
Do you understand what these words mean?
IF you still want to defend weapons of MASS SHOOTING EFFICIENCY then I demand that you also openly declare that we should have these weapons and be free to use them to repel MAGAts, trumpers, radical right republicans and fascists…because that is who is using them aginst us.
Over the past thrity years I saw people become more radicalized towards right wing fascism, pushed by talk radio propaganda, the elimination of responsible journalism, and utter censorship of all non-fascist voices on the vroadcast airwaves.
The parts of the country that dont matter elected trump, scared away Democrat candidates, got three young SCOTUS judges for lifetime appointments and keep taking hold of Congress for multiple terms at a time.

All of the radical right wing violence leading to more radical right wing politicians and radical right wing division from society on a local level. Also, the radical right wing threats of violence against political opponents that gives us shitbags like MTG.
So your police will fire wildly at a crowd of civilians? You have already lost. You are under fascist rule. You will now have to arm yourselves to survive.
In all of these discussions the defense from the left is always “we are weak and pathetic”.
I do not buy that BS. They left the US because they were invited to by the US government after beating the fuck out of the labor force and telling them that unions were anti-American. The entire reason for the trump movement was loss of rural county manufacturing jobs.
