This is the first time in MY LIFE I've felt the need to own a gun despite being threatened by, shot at and pistol whipped in my teen years and losing two loved ones and countless freinds and acquaintences to gun violence. Been pricing shotguns for the last couple of weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only actual hell is the reality that the parents of the slain, and to a lesser extent the rest of us, are living in.

GeneticBlueprint Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 There will be no justice for the slain. There will be no succor for their family members. The only recompense they'll get are over-represented 2A psychos ensuring that no laws will ever be passed to keep these things from happening. I don't care if it's just a hobby. I don't care if you feel like you need it to protect your property. I love playing guitar but if I found out that every time I struck a chord a child died I'd toss them all into a wood chipper.

I remember telling a friend of mine at the time that if a bunch of six year old white kids getting murdered in their classrooms did nothing to move the needle in this country nothing would.

I wouldn't mind Canada's system. For one, you don't undergo a background check every time you buy a gun. You just present your PAL (possession and acquisition license) when you purchase a firearm, whether that is a private party sale or at a gun shop. From what I understand, everyone with a PAL undergoes a background check everyday, and if you are flagged as a prohibited person (or whatever they call it in Canada), the authorities show up and confiscate your card and any guns you may have.

Even if they moved for mental health reform, they'll refuse to pay for any of it. We'd need universal healthcare for to keep it free or else it does nothing. It'll never happen.
