Listen if I have to look at one more “thoughts and prayers” post or comment I’m going to fucking lose it. Let’s say hypothetically you think there was nothing we could have done to stop a shooting. It’s still fucking useless. It doesn’t enact any tangible change to the lives of the people effected. It doesn’t bring people back. Donating money would be more useful, death has costs just as much as life does. Thoughts? Prayers? Get that empty shit out of here. Positive vibes are great and all but this isn’t a situation where they do fucking anything. If “thoughts and prayers” are all you have, just stay fucking quiet. The absence won’t be missed.

Yeah I really don’t think comparing Hamilton dying in a duel despite having a gun to people dying despite having guns today is really an effective argument against guns cause that was literally an organized thing and Hamilton chose not to shoot and Burr did so.. yeah it’s just not an effective argument. It’s not like Burr broke into his house and shot Hamilton despite Hamilton having a gun or something. It’s just.. Not an effective argument

Argue against guns and for gun control to your heart’s content but please for the love of fuck pick arguments that are actually based in some statistics and logic TODAY instead of some historical anecdote that you aren’t even representing correctly and is irrelevant to your argument in any case

It’s like the playground stick argument. Kid playground disputes and their solutions aren’t an effective way to address gun laws.

that stupid bald chick who keeps campaigning for all the guns to be taken away basically straight up admitted that she herself bullied the parkland shooter and she isn’t sorry at all lmfao good lord what an absolute bitch

Source?

“It was no surprise to anyone who knew him that he was the shooter. Those talking about how we should not have ostracized him, you didn’t know this kid, okay? We did”

“We knew he was gonna be a monster, so we treated him like a monster until he did something awful. Self-fulfilling prophecy, what’s that?”

The government won’t save you. You save you. Protect your fucking self. 

“The police are just a janitorial service used to clean up your blood after you’ve been murdered.” -Wynn Duffy, Justified. 

Friendly reminder the Supreme Court ruled that police have zero legal responsibility to protect you.

again for the additions.

As I’ve said before….I had a guy force his way into my home, then retreat. Cops showed up and couldn’t find him after a good maybe 30 minutes. Then saw him robbing my neighbors. Cops took an hour to come. He left and the cops didn’t think he broke into the neighbors. But he did. Barney Fife is not a “security measure.” Having a gun is.
