The shootings

ICouldBeYourDadover 8 years ago

So there's been a lot of shooting recently and the president isnt doing about it.

Australia had its worst mass shooting in 1996 on the 28th of April. 12 days later australia announced a bipartisan deal on sweeping gun control measures. The government brought back and destroyed over a million guns. We (australia) haven't had a mass shooting since.

Why is Trump not doing anything. Children are dying. People aren't living their full lives. If comforting those who have been through trauma and lost loved ones is all they can do b*llfucking sh*t. If saying it will be okay to those victims then saying that to gun owners should be fine too.

Sorry im just annoyed with how this has all been going down.

If that was supposed to be sarcastic devante, that is kinda funny

Because I would think theoretically in a society where everyone owns and is properly trained on how to use a gun, crime basically wouldnt exist.

i voted cuckdeau but yeah
More guns = more deaths
Literally has been proven

Trudeau is also a major idiot and I am upset I voted him.

This guy is like SJW 101

And I ain’t saying no god damn tumblr Canadian anthem

Something else that blows my mind is that mans are out here screaming " THE POLICE, THE POLICE R BAD MENS THEY ARE RACIST AND EVOL"

but when u ask them who they expect to protect u if u are being shot up by a goon they say "the police"

if lawful citizens are not allowed to own guns and unlawful citizens just dont give a fuk, who do u expect to protecc u when a bad men is banging on ur door with a boom boom stick

btw haha its not exactly the police's job to care about u:

Do I think gun control should be changed?

yeah theres probably a few problems here and there with the system.

But do I think no one should have access to guns/gun ownership should be discouraged???

I'm baffled that people think the recent shootings are a guns thing and not a cultural thing. Comparing Australia to the United States is stupid bc you're looking at two completely diff scenarios. Australia is pretty much its own continent and has like 1/14 the population size of the US lol.

Taking away guns isn't going to stop shootings or crime. Overall crime rates have risen in just about every country that took away guns. The hot burglary rate in the UK and the Netherlands is like 3x what it is in the US. This is a great watch for anyone who hasnt seen it already: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qhvBzZM1c8

Did anyone ever study the unibomber’s manifesto ? I feel like it would be a good read
no class analysis, he blames techonlogy as the source of social control when its just a tool, read focault instead

Someone can't legally drink but they can interpret the constitution and uphold StrongDemocraticValues(TM)

why is it okay for underage individuals to be able to purchase guns?

Quick bump to those saying NRA isn’t the problem & not to politicize this :

Florida bans anyone under 21 from purchasing a gun...

NRA files lawsuit against Florida ...
Hmmm
you are a fool. they filed the lawsuit because it directly violates the 2nd amendment. like it or not, its illegal.

Honest to god, you yanks have it lucky over there. In australia we have f.uckall freedom, in the uk you need a licence for a goddamn tv
fishswimover 8 years ago
Another thing,australia and UK banned guns and look at how f.ucked they are by refos and their nanny statism and police statism.
fishswimover 8 years agoedited
You dumb sh1ts, we (australia) have had mass shootings.google "lindt cafe siege", "momash uni shooting" or "hunt family murders" to name a few. Gun control in australia is stupid . We recently had guns banned because of how they LOOKED.
