Far-Queue 04/16/21 10:20:04 AM #19:	Every year is different regardless of who is president. Some years are worse than others. It's no more fair to blame Trump for the Vegas shooting or the Parkland shooting than it is to blame Obama for the Pulse shooting or Biden for the recent spate of shootings. The problem isn't who is president. The problem isn't a lack of morals or god. The problem is too many guns in the hands of people who shouldn't have them, and a lack of proper healthcare coupled with this bullshit outdated "boys don't cry/men can't show vulnerability" attitude in the States which leads to men not seeking help when they need it. We have a constitutional right to keep and bear arms. But that doesn't mean there can't be checks and balances to that right. Enacting a national registry and requiring insurance per firearm is a good start. Background checks. Red flag laws. Proper education when issuing licenses to own and carry firearms, including extensive exposure to real impacts of gun violence and trauma. Show these people the devestation caused by firearms and not just the sexy John Wayne machismo aspect of owning guns. Teach that empathy before they can even purchase a gun. Limits on how and where guns can be sold/exchanged. Limits on how much ammunition can be kept. Limits on how many and what kind of firearms can be obtained. To be clear, I'm not advocating for any of those solutions listed above. I don't know what it's going to take to get to the root of the issue but I do know it's going to take a combination of things, and those changes could take years to take shape and see some real results come of them. I'm an Army veteran. I've fired all sorts of cool shit. Believe in the 2nd amendment. But there's gotta be some common sense here. I don't know the solution. I'm admittedly not that smart. I could never run for office, I'd be laughed off the ballot. But it's not criminals with illegal guns perpetrating many of these mass shootings. A lot of them are perpetrated by legal gun owners, or with firearms which were obtained legally at some point prior to the shooting. https://www.statista.com/statistics/476461/mass-shootings-in-the-us-by-legality-of-shooters-weapons/ I don't want to see guns banned wholesale. But there needs to be limits. There needs to be checks and balances. There needs to be a change in how we view men and masculinity and mental health in this country. Will we ever be able to prevent all mass shootings? Probably not. But we can't keep punting on the issue because "criminals don't follow the law" or "we can't solve the issue 100%" - that's bullshit. --- https://imgur.com/ZwO4qO2 "I'm a pathetic Simp and am proud to be exploited" - Lord_Shadow <cite>Far-Queue posted [p:952895307] in Yet anothe...

It's no more fair to blame Trump for the Vegas shooting or the Parkland shooting than it is to blame Obama for the Pulse shooting or Biden for the recent spate of shootings. The problem isn't who is president. The problem isn't a lack of morals or god. The problem is too many guns in the hands of people who shouldn't have them, and a lack of proper healthcare coupled with this bullshit outdated "boys don't cry/men can't show vulnerability" attitude in the States which leads to men not seeking help when they need it. We have a constitutional right to keep and bear arms. But that doesn't mean there can't be checks and balances to that right. Enacting a national registry and requiring insurance per firearm is a good start. Background checks. Red flag laws. Proper education when issuing licenses to own and carry firearms, including extensive exposure to real impacts of gun violence and trauma. Show these people the devestation caused by firearms and not just the sexy John Wayne machismo aspect of owning guns. Teach that empathy before they can even purchase a gun. Limits on how and where guns can be sold/exchanged. Limits on how much ammunition can be kept. Limits on how many and what kind of firearms can be obtained. To be clear, I'm not advocating for any of those solutions listed above. I don't know what it's going to take to get to the root of the issue but I do know it's going to take a combination of things, and those changes could take years to take shape and see some real results come of them. I'm an Army veteran. I've fired all sorts of cool shit. Believe in the 2nd amendment. But there's gotta be some common sense here. I don't know the solution. I'm admittedly not that smart. I could never run for office, I'd be laughed off the ballot. But it's not criminals with illegal guns perpetrating many of these mass shootings. A lot of them are perpetrated by legal gun owners, or with firearms which were obtained legally at some point prior to the shooting. https://www.statista.com/statistics/476461/mass-shootings-in-the-us-by-legality-of-shooters-weapons/ I don't want to see guns banned wholesale. But there needs to be limits. There needs to be checks and balances. There needs to be a change in how we view men and masculinity and mental health in this country. Will we ever be able to prevent all mass shootings? Probably not. But we can't keep punting on the issue because "criminals don't follow the law" or "we can't solve the issue 100%" - that's bullshit.

JigsawTDC 04/16/21 5:51:26 PM #47:	If we take 2nd Amendment to the logical extreme, the idea that it's there to protect the citizens against a government turned tyrantical, then every day citizens should have access to the same tools of destruction the government has, up to and including nuclear weapons. Because in any other case, such as our current reality, the government would just roflstomp us. The 2nd Amendment as potential protection from the government is an illusion that the government wants you to buy into, because they know in reality it has no power against them and it keeps most people distracted arguing about bump stock and clip size. I said it in another topic though: the correlation between amount of guns in the U.S. compared to other nations vs. gun violence in the two is both unsurprising and staggering. But realistically, in a country as saturated with guns as the U.S., you would actively need to start taking guns away from people which isn't going to come without massive, violent civil unrest. And symbolically, surrendering all that power to an obviously corrupt government doesn't sit well to me. In general though, I do support lessening the amount of weapons in the world and I'm in favor of any willing disarmament on any level. I'm also in favor of gun safety education and training being taught in schools, starting as early as possible. U.S. has a cultural sickness of glorifying violence, fetishizing guns, and discouraging mental healthcare for men. There's also a clear correlation between particular medications (many antidepressants and antipsychotics) and perpetrators of mass violence. Not to say that these medications cause that, because they seem to do fine for people in other countries, but it points to particular type of neurosis that is being developed and fostered in young, fragile, and unstable men. Robust and accessible mental health care is a necessity if this country ever wants to get better in a multitude of ways. <cite>JigsawTDC posted [p:952909619] in Yet anothe...
