Uvalde was a false flag operation by the Dems to take away our guns. As we know, they are willing to sacrifice children to achieve their goals of world domination.

Idk about sacrificing them but Beto is certainly willing to exploit their deaths🤷♂️
All this arguing and finger-pointing and I'd just like to point out that I do not even own any guns presently. I seem to have the world's worst luck. My preferred place to shoot is on a small island and almost every time I go out there to shoot I have a boating accident and lose all my firearms. I keep buying new ones and then lose them to the watery depths. Hopefully I'll be able to keep buying new ones to replace all the ones I keep losing in these boating accidents.
Do we ban semi auto shotguns too? What about pistols that are also semi auto? Or just all semi auto rifles of which the AR-15 platform is only part of, not all encompassing. What about all those guns in circulation? What happens to those? What prevents those from being sold? 0% chance the government can afford to buy back them all.
Idk I see it as about as effective as magazine restrictions or city gun bans, which are a fucking joke. People will find a way to do bad things; I'm not gonna spell it out online for some psycho to find but using a semi auto rifle is just one way. Sure it's probably one of the more efficient ways to enact terror but it certainly won't stop under any sort of bill banning things.
I'm all for adding steps to the process of obtaining more dangerous firearms (without ridiculous fees such as the NFA tax stamp bs), but banning any one individual type of weapon won't solve this problem. Before you gun nuts freak out over me categorizing something as "more dangerous", it's true. A 9mm round simply is not as dangerous as a rifle round purely by physics. If you can't see that bans are futile, I'm not gonna waste my time arguing with a wall. A ban is not an effective solution.

Ill make the point easy to understand:
When you are in class and someone barges into your classrooms, armed heavier than Rambo, having a barrel pointed to your head and he has nothing in his eyes.
How would you prevent this? Thats the fucking question. I mean really understand this as a policy maker, off the NRA payroll. Every solution you come up with, think of that scenario. Gun to your head beside your classmates and your gored up teacher front and center stage.
How far do things have to get to get a perfect answer, in the shoes of the victims? Or how about parents of the victims?
The stories coming out of the shooting are heartbreaking. A teacher died with 6-7 year old children in her arms, executed point blank. How does that not turn your stomach?
Gunman had no history of mental disorder, criminal history, bought the guns legally and this happened anyway. Things are clearly not working because there have never been so many guns in the US and teachers still got slaughted with children in their arms. More guns was clearly not the solution that was preached for 20 years. Nor was mental health or background check loopholes that were blamed and promised, but never delievered.

Of course it's a tragedy and beyond fucked up. Your comment doesn't change anything and I don't see a solution you put forth. My point is that the solutions that people are making sound like it will solve everything, simply won't. Also background checks for guns are a fucking joke. Takes like 15min and the dealer calls the feds to run the check. Current background checks don't prevent these types of things. By all means change the way Americans obtain firearms but banning something is a futile attempt not only because there's hundreds of millions of guns out there but also because alternatives exist.
AndrewGravesSVI mean if you ban the more efficient ways to kill people then you end up with less people killed lol
Maybe, but I'd beg to differ it will be substituted for another alternative. I'm not gonna list them in case the crazies get ideas but I can think of at least 5 different ways that are equally as deadly that would still exist, even if we banned every gun in America except hunting rifles and revolvers. That is my point. There's plenty of examples of this in the US and abroad; you don't need a semi auto rifle to exact mass damage. We get so focused on one thing and forget the bigger picture.
I don't believe gun control is even possible anymore. If we could live in a country with no guns, I'd be for it but that's never going to happen because we're too far gone from that. All the gun control being proposed is too weak and couldn't stop these events. Unfortunately, proposed gun control has to be weak because strict gun control is too unpopular and if it was even passed it would be unenforceable.
It sounds like an answer out of the NRA's playbook but mental health is the crisis causing this. There's other countries with lots of guns and they don't have this problem because they have public mental health care. If we did too, that system could play into the existing gun background check process. If there was a free mental health resource that people could seek or be referred to and real professionals were able to treat them and flag them on background checks if needed, it would stop senseless violence like this.

The fucked up thing with that is that the gun nut types that always say "it's mental health lets do nothing about the gun side of things" also are against any kind of healthcare and def fixing access to mental health care.
-‐------------
Pretty much they have no interest in fixing it they just want to be able to keep as many guns as they feel like it because A shooting guns is fun or B they're delusional about the government. Before any of those types quote me, bush was pretty popular and he passed the patriot act. Where were you in the streets protesting that with your guns? You weren't, you were waving American flags and doing USA chants.
We also have this weird action hero thing. Everyone wants to be a friggin hero. Random people getting shot seems to be a shit ton more likely than the action hero saving the world but that's the world we want so that's the narrative we'll cling to.
If children can't go to school without getting shot, you can't buy some groceries without getting shot, but we all have plenty of guns I'd call that a win right?
Idk I get it, yiu have the list of a million reasons why guns saved everyone, guns cure cancer, your mom was going blind but she shot a gun and nkw she can see. Cool i don't want to hash that out.
It's pretty fucked up when the second people here 19 children shot dead at school they instantly go for "Guns are fine we need more guns, teachers should have had guns, kids should have had guns" At least give it 30 seconds of wow, that's terrible, before diving right in.
Most of that was to the thread btw, just replied to you at the top.

Honestly as invasive as it is, the NSA spying on citizens combined with AI tech could or may have had the power in the future to identify people like this preemptively. Sounds like minority report I know but imagine if it had never been leaked what the US was doing. We could have a huge watch list of people that the government puts on a "no sell list" for guns. That will never fly on either side of the aisle though. It's funny because you can't go anywhere in the US without being captured on camera but we are OK with that; all things the government has access to.

I forgot to mention earlier but media coverage has to chill out. It has been shown to influence copycats or give courage to other shooters.

Maybe the NSA spying could create a functional no sell list but when someone gets denied when buying a gun, what do you tell them it's for? Yeah dude, we're spying on you and are denying you a constitutional right without due process (another constitutional right) thank us later. Healthcare, even though it's mentioned constantly and half-heartedly, could provide "soft surveillance" and aside from the gun issue could also have a hugely positive impact for everyone in this country.

Yes, let's have US Inc. enforcers, where each election cycle brings a new executive officer to appoint such officials, regulate who can and cannot have guns in America. Trump comes into office, his buddies sign the fraudulent 'antisemitism' bill, thus making BDS activists targets. Economy collapses, disdidents against US Inc corruption deemed bad. "Well it's a good thing Turd Authority lets us put whoever we want on a "no sell list" for guns," while we simultaneously give ACTUAL weapons of war to Israeli teenagers to shoot pregnant Palestinian women.
Farmville420Bruh they already read all our messages, remember the patriot act? Makes me feel like they just let this shit happen, same with buffalo, it’s weird idk
The Buffalo shooting was MADE to happen from what I understand. There were FEDS posting to him all over his social media. More info has come out, though the media will never mention it. I posted elsewhere about how the FBI tried to get a schizophrenic to bomb a bunch of people so they could blame it on right-wing white people, which the ADL was privy to but the parents caught the FBi in the act. Then you have the Islamofascist threat, completely manufactured by intelligence agencies and the FBI as well over 95% of all domestic plots were either entrapment or were made to happen.
We have the loosest gun laws of any developed nation and we have more mass shootings than any other developed nation. Correlation certainly feels like causation.
This was a decent writeup: "What if the majority of these mass shootings are fueled by Feds inciting and instigating impressionable individuals they target in online chat rooms? We live in a world run by psychopaths. Fed entrapment and incitement has been a thing for decades. It seems that 9 out of 10 times we discover Feds lurking in the shadows of these mass casualty events."
"It’s almost like the Feds are saying: “We were so close to preventing this atrocity, we just need more funding, more resources, more tools, more reach, more control.”
"And remember, every now and then, to make themselves appear effective, the Feds will swoop down with their guns drawn and literally foil their own plot."
"And once in a while, Feds will sacrifice one of their own agents by throwing them under the bus, so they can say: “See, we are actively rooting out the rogue elements. And these accountability psyops mostly fall under the umbrella of limited hangouts and public relations psywar."
"Feds aren’t bumbling. They want it to appear as though they are incompetent and bumbling like keystone cops, but it’s exactly the opposite. They are in near total control of their operations, typically striking with precision and accuracy while attempting to cover their tracks."

eheathdamn people will really believe anything they read online
As far as conspiracy theories go, the FBI radicalizing venerable people and providing means to commit acts of terrorism is very realistic. That shit has been going on since 9/11 where to this day, they still target young Muslims and try to radicalize them like Sami Osmakac. The plot to kidnap governor Whitmer? 4 were militia members, 12 were working with the FBI and multiple others involved were FBI agents. They're up to some sketchy fucking shit.
I feel like gun control in America is unfortunately a complete pipe dream. Gun culture is so interwoven into society (particularly rural) that there will simply never been enough popular support for restrictions. And the even if they were to ban assault style rifles, there's still so many out there that it wouldn't be difficult to source one. I think that this won't stop ever. It's heartbreaking obviously but if anything could have actually been done, it would have already been implemented by now. America is the only developed nation where this happens so often that active shooter drills are almost as common as fire drills and nothing has changed in the last decade. If you ask me, the failure to implement any effective policies to combat the issue is telling of the continued degradation of American democracy. The two-party system being a major influence on that. Shit like this is why nobody takes America seriously anymore. If this kind of domestic terrorism happens as often and as consistently as it does, why the hell should I think they can handle international terrorism or any kind of global conflict for that matter. Completely fucked

It's become an identity almost religion to people. Wrapped up in all the weird nationalism. It's almost not even about the guns to some people. Any changes are seen as a target on their identity. Even if you could show with solid evidence that some small changes would stop a bunch of these shootings, I feel like a lot of those types would still be against it.

Haha I knew this tired point was coming. Do you really want to go down that path? I’d love to discuss the historical, moral, and social effects of African warlords selling captured prisoners to European and Muslim slave traders over the past 500 so years.
Are we judging history by our modern standards now? That ends up in Orwell territory fast. The ancient Greeks practiced slavery extensively, even if they believed it was morally dubious. Do we throw away the concept of democracy itself? We might as well replace the WW2 statues of Churchill with JK Rowling yeah? Oh wait she’s problematic now too. Statue of Greta Thunberg I guess?

Talk of the 2nd amendment in America is irrelevant for two reasons. The first is that the 2nd amendment is an in-company statuary law for the US corporation, which has no sway over granting or revoking ownership rights for Americans. Hence, the 2nd amendment is only a Federal oversight of federal installations, which does not include your house or even the state. Useful idiots, political hacks, lawyers, anti-gun advocates, even pro-gun advocates, etc., who base their argument in this domain, do so in ignorance of corporate jurisdiction, which only exists as code inside the border of the District of Columbia incorporated as well as, forts, docks and arsenals. US jurisdiction over any place cannot be acquired tortiously, not by occupancy with its tacit consent. I don't think they ever will ban of confiscate guns, in fact, the opposite happens when these school shootings occur, more people buy guns. They might, however, go after ammo and pass baker act/red flag laws for pre-crime policing which gives a broad amount of power for the state to police those who want to purchase guns, via going after those who sell firearms.
JuviticusI think we are definitely more enlighted to human nature than the founding fathers lmao like weren't they cool with slavery
Read my post above, or Beard's Economic Interpretation of the Constitution, which, unsurprisingly, isn't a mandatory read in highschool or college. The Founding fathers were a bunch of lawyers, land speculators, bankers, enslavers who sold out the revolutionists during the Treaty of Paris. Shay's rebels were the only real insurrections against debt slavery and government/corporate incursion. Washington had to come out of retirement and put them in their place by funding fat obese slob Benjamin Lincoln and his 2nd amendment militia/mercenary men, who fought for GAP psychology which is now offical US creed.
Like I said above, the 2nd amendment doesn't apply to me, so fuck you, fuck the NRA, fuck the gun-control lobby, fuck US Inc, fuck corporations.

What's your point tho? We were talking about being enlightened to human nature and my point was that modern humans are more enlightened to human nature due to globalisation and more shared lived experiences. The change of perception in regards to slavery is just an example of that.
In order to learn from our history we have to judge and analyze it. If we don't we're doomed to make the same mistakes we made in the past and life won't be any better than it was.

Of course, the government is not stupid enough to try and go door to door demanding guns. They know they’d get ran off the property in a hail of gunfire. That’s why they are going with this death by a thousand cuts.
Events like this are very useful for pushing the agenda. “Machine guns are weapons of war no one should own” to “those darn fully semi automatic rifles are killing machines” to “well grandpa did just fine with a bolt action, are you that bad of a shot?”. It’s a slow but steady process.
Thank GOD for 3D printing. Soon you will be able to DIY print everything yourself, including tricky bits like barrels. I’d love to see how the gun control stooges attack that one. They’d be admitting they believe information is dangerous, but sadly I think the population is too far gone to notice. “The good man on TV told me that guns are bad, and I believe him. Police will protect me”. (Uvalde moment).

The point is you have to be able to separate the art from the artist. JK Rowling wrote books that have inspired and comforted millions yet she is blackballed from her own work, largely by fans of her series because she thinks women are women. The founding fathers, while products of their time, had incredible foresight into human nature and how that fit into creating the best, most fair system of government possible. Yes, they knew that they could not account for everything in the future, which is why we have the Amendment process. But to deny the importance of the second amendment, placed in its position and the most succinct for a reason, would be asinine. The first amendment is only backed up by the second.

While I understand your art vs artist point there's a big difference. Jk Rowlings poor understanding of the nature of her audience had the consequence that she would make less money and isn't as popular or whatever. The founding fathers lack of foresight into modern human nature has led to children getting slaughtered on a regular basis. So I can judge them for being slave owners, and for penning a constitution that allows for this sort of tragedy to happen repeatedly. Also I know that technically they can amend the constitution, but we all know that'll happen when hell freezes over

See now you are arguing on an emotional basis. “Children being slaughtered on a regular basis” makes for an impactful, emotionally effective headline, but fails to actually address the issues at hand. If we wanted to go down that path, “Chicago a bloodbath of gore and death daily”, “Roving mad-max style gangs target Los Angeles stores for pillage” , “Chinese killer fentanyl leaves countless children orphaned”. Thinking emotionally is what the media wants, it leaves you easily controlled. It’s very very effective. After all, who makes good decisions when they are angry?

Thank GOD for 3D printing. Soon you will be able to DIY print everything yourself, including tricky bits like barrels. I’d love to see how the gun control stooges attack that one. They’d be admitting they believe information is dangerous, but sadly I think the population is too far gone to notice. “The good man on TV told me that guns are bad, and I believe him. Police will protect me”. (Uvalde moment).
One can own whatever gun he or she so desires if they live in an unincorporated town and don't contract with US inc. The process of gun confiscation, when it came to AUScorp owned by Crown Inc., was a simple but bloody process. The Crown knew that most Australians were neutral on guns except for Tazmanians. Politicians working for the Crown in Australia openly stated that the only way guns could be confiscated was if a mass shooting happened in Tasmania. A self-fufilling prophecy? A few months later a mass shooting happens in Taz, except that it was orchestrated by ASIS and blamed on a 66IQ man child. Egregious crimes agaisnt humanity were conducted to change the public's perception about guns. Australia, naturally, isn't a free society, it is a subsidiary corporation of Crown Inc., making its leadership autocrats, though with the superficial petina of working under a democracy. Americans fought the Crown, the Crown gave up everything except for one thing, banking and monetary issuance; which was agreed upon by traitors such as Washington via the Treaty of Paris. The reason states can become commonwealths of Crown Inc today is because the Crown through the city of London owns states such as Massachusets, who former govenors, like Weld, have a long history of British loyalty and royalty. The 1960's comes by and the rise of Zionists and Israeli 'dual' single loyalists start to hijack congress and American foreign policy via stealing taxpayer entitlements. Like the british loyalists, these Zionists want to ban guns in America while trafficking guns to Israel. British loyalists and Zionists hate real Americans. They want you broke, dead, your kids raped and brainwashed, and they think it's funny.
The police won't protect you because all police are LAW ENFORCERS of state or municipality corporations. You protect yourself.

Intriguing, I had assumed Australia always was anti-gun given its similarities to the UK and Canada. Although Australia has never been free, after all, it was started as a prison colony.
Funny how they couldn’t find a fall guy who looked different from your stereotypical blond haired surfer bum.
Control of monetary issuance will be the LAST thing that is given up. The tribe would rather nuclear hellfire engulf the world than see the golden calf that has shepherded them through history finally destroyed. A pipe dream, but a sweet one.
