Fuck gun control
idk about you but I'm against white kids having guns, they do the school shootings
Ok reasonable
That's crakkker control
Charlie agrees!
Let me rephrase that: fuck this racist capitalist country enforcing gun control
Amerikkkans have had more guns than people for years and what have they done with them?
Charlie's quote is still accurate. Arguing against gun control in the hopes that they will eventually be used for revolution is arguing that school shootings are the cost for a future potential maybe revolution.
I don't live in the US but do you really think the US government would enforce gun control out of care and love for the people?
The way I see it they only do it to disarm oppressed people, while the real issues that cause gun violence (systemic inequality, racism, culture war) will remain untouched
Australia didn't enforce gun control out of "care and love for the people", they enforced it because they value national stability and Not Being Shot. Capitalists are not immune to bullets, as the US are kinda learning the hard way, and it doesn't benefit the bourgeoisie when their workers' kids get massacred at school.
Gun control without addressing the core issues that cause violence is not a lasting solution, but it is what sane nations do to reduce needless deaths, regardless of how malicious or benevolent their intentions are. The US is just not a sane nation.
I guess so... I just don't see how gun control stops a student who has already made up their mind
My university went on strike after a student stabbed another to death. The entire school could hear his girlfriend's screams echoing
It's a lot harder to go on a killing spree with a knife than with a gun. Again, the root cause of the violence isn't solved, but having access to firearms makes it easier to follow through on violent intentions.
Same goes for suicide. Gun control would most likely reduce suicides by 10k or more each year. Guns make suicide alot easier.
Shootings are easier and thus happen far more often and with more victims. This really isn't debatable.
the availability of guns is one of the only things ameriKKKan proletarian movements have going for them. of course there are a billion more important things but we don't have any of those. it just doesn't make sense to push to get rid of the one thing we do have. of course, this is all gonna be a moot point when after the third luigi they do gun control anyway. but in the meantime, armed minorities are harder to oppress.
Fr. Fuck Abigail SSpanberg for this virginia gun ban
