minus-square@ThatWeirdGuy1001link-3•edit-23 days agoI’m all for guns but keep them responsibly. Which most gun owners seem completely incapable of doing so. Edit: I’m amazed at how people have went from “all guns bad” to “you need a gun” due to the election.
minus-square@BlitzoTheOisSilentlink10•3 days ago most gun owners seem completely incapable of doing so. You got a source for “most” gun owners being “completely incapable of doing so?” Cause I’ve yet to see a study that says any of what you said above.
minus-square@MellowYellow13link-8•3 days agoSchool shootings on the regular, that’s your study in real life.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink8•3 days agoAnd what percentage of gun owners are the source of the weapons of school shooters? And before you go off on a tangent, gun regs are a good things, background checks are good, red flag laws are good.

minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink3•3 days agoConsidering they’re just above traffic fatalities I suppose it would be fair to say most drivers are incapable of safely keeping cars too.
minus-square@ThatWeirdGuy1001link0•3 days agoYou would be correct. Who would’ve thought humans can’t responsibly operate literal death machines?
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•edit-23 days agoYou think thats bad you should see how dangerous the average kitchen is, full of detergents, heavy acids, heavy bases, knives, fire and gas sources. Literal death rooms those have got to go along with cars im with ya.
