Everyone gets it but you.
The fascists are armed to their teeth because dumb fucks following dumb rules allowed it.
That's the reason they are NOT armed to their teeth where I live and if they try to get armed they run a real risk of going to jail. I read about it every other week, because they keep trying and fortunately most keep failing.
And that's why I as a not so young, but tattooed and obviously liberal looking dude can walk around without a care in the world and I train how to choke a mf out just for my personal enjoyment and not for any real world need to.
I'll never understand this bizarre fucking response. "Oh it's so hard to fix this we should just all lie down and die instead". It's everywhere but guns and climate change seem to draw it out the most.
Easy.
If you got a gun without permit you go to jail.
There is a timeframe in which to give away your gun, maybe you even get compensated if you do.
Enforcement is key obviously.
Poof 99% of guns gone.
Worked just fine in Australia which I think had more guns per person than the US but I might be mistaken and can't be arsed to look up a source for you to ignore.
Wow you really showed me there. That was fun.
Maybe some day someone less uneducated than me will check your slightly suspicious numbers, but it won't be me.
I sit down happily knowing the chance of me getting shot to death are pretty slim, you keep standing tall big guy.
