Yeah, like the white replacement theory, the "Biden Crime Family" led by an old man that is somehow a criminal mastermind at the same time he isn't mentally competent, or how someone is coming to take our guns away, or the liberal teachers turning their students gay, or all those stolen elections, or the dozens of other stuff normal people laugh at conservatives for blindly believing in like a bunch of sheep.
I'm with you on everything but the whole guns thing...they most definitely are always try to take firearms. You're naive if you think otherwise.
Ooohhh nooo big bad Biden come to take our guns away
Member that time he said to bypass due process and confiscate any gun with a bump stock immediately?
Oh wait that was the other septagenarian
Seriously, these fucking people. Very few democrats that people take seriously are advocating for taking away guns like Trump did. Gun control? Absofuckinglutely, but if you don't believe in gun control you shouldn't believe in drivers licenses or criminal background checks or any other kind of government regulations, either. Like moronic libertarians.
What's next, a license to make toast in your own damn toaster?
Either I peed off some libertarians or /s is needed
I can buy a car without background checks, I can buy any car I want at any age without a license, I can transport it anywhere in the country, and can drive it on private property without insurance or a license.
Can't do that shit with firearms, so please stop with your ignorance about gun control.
Yes, also cars are a problem too, thank you for pointing this out. There are way too many cars, it's unsustainable. Not even talking about the earth right now, motorways with fucking 8 lanes and there's still traffic.
Also: cars don't fit in your pocket and can mow down everyone in a small room without warning. Usually manslaughter requires a lot more noise and at least some kind of runway to build up speed.
Please stop with your ignorance about gun control.
Yea cause electric cars are quite...and guns are super quiet....lol
I'm all for mass transit btw...but that isn't what we're arguing about here.
You know all that tyranny you hate from the right wing dick heads in this country? That's why. And yes all forms of things have been used to kill humans throughout history, get over it. You hate the police but want to give them control of force, your naive children. You also don't give two shits when it's black on black crime in inner cities with handguns and drug/gang violence... you're only worried when you see something like this on the news. Stop acting like you give a shit.
Guns and cars are two totally different things.
They are so different that any comparison between the two is moot.
Yes because I'm brought them up lol
Remember the AWB?
O and where did the OP say anything about shit Republicans encroaching on the 2nd?
Want some more whataboutism?
They've been coming for your guns for decades. And are not even one step closer.
So either you're wrong, or the people coming for them are so absurdly incompetent that you have nothing to fear. And I'm saying that as someone that absolutely supports them coming for your guns.
So you just proved my point. You are on the left and you want my guns. Just because they're failing at trying to destroy the 2nd doesn't mean they're not trying.
Can you read my dear friend? He didn't prove your point.
So what you're saying is owning guns doesn't make you feel more secure?
Republican president Donald Trump passed the most comprehensive federal gun control law in decades, and he did so through executive order without Congress passing any laws.
And Obama eased restrictions on guns in National Parks, but those are just facts not feelings.
Yep and he's a fuckin dick and so are the other Republican trash heaps who act like they're pro2a. The Republicans aren't for the 2nd.
If the left and the right are taking your guns who are you voting for?
There's the paradox of American politics. You can vote for people who are probably fucking you over somehow, or someone who can't ever win.
Lol are you fucking daft? Look up "Trump gun quote". He literally talks about taking guns away. Something no democratic president has ever said.
Lol fuck trump and the Republicans, they're not for the 2nd, but this isn't about the Dems vs Republicans. This is about the left wanting to take away the firearms.
What specific legislation did the Dems introduce that attempted this "take my guns away" you're referencing?
*crickets chirping*
Haha, yes it's what I expected.
I've lost a handful of rights over the last couple years, and none of them have anything to do with owning guns. Maybe you're worried about the wrong things.
-Donald Trump, 2018.
That...doesn't contradict what he said, at all. All it shows is that Trump counts among the "they" in question. And I don't think anyone has ever claimed Trump was strong on 2A stuff. TBF, Trumps not strong on anything other than finding ways to bill the federal government for his secret service detail projecting him.
It's really generally a bad idea to assume all of someone's positions based on one of their positions. Real people don't work that way.
Right, so the hilarious way conservatives fucked themselves and each other by stockpiling ammo and paying 5x the regular price for it because of OBAMA was a really smart move.
