    I am all for this wave of “Pink Panthers” arming themselves. Hopefully it will lead to some actual gun control laws, because it scares the cowardly fascists.

      I understand what you mean, but unfortunatly they could just make those potential laws only restrict LGBTQ+ gun owners while protecting themselves from any retribution.

        Yep maggots would say “sex offenders” should be banned from gun ownership

        Let me reiterate. Maggots have attempted to label the entire LGBTQ community as sex offenders against children only because of their orientation. This would be their playbook for grabbing their guns without having to give up theirs

          You joke, but carry and purchase laws were literally created to stop black people from carrying or purchasing X locally “restricted” item, but over time some areas stopped using them that way and got more permissive about it, some areas started making it harder for everyone so at least it isn’t racist but fuck everybody, and some areas still use what laws are in place for their intended purpose (see: North Carolina recently took away their pistol purchase permit requirement, but before they did 60% of denials were to african americans.)

          It very well might be no guns for gays/trans, it would just be worded differently as “concealed carry permits” or “purchase permits” that “require review” by the local authorities including your social media as many advocate for or medical history (that one may be harder because HIPPA but would be called “mental health checks” officially, requiring you to sign a waiver when applying for the permit.) Or by using all that data that people who “have nothing to hide” are freely giving to companies that sell it to the NSA, “sorry our database says you visited the local gay bar ‘buttchuggers’ a whole bunch, we don’t think you’re morally fit to own firearms and have denied your request.” It could happen. Will it? Who knows, but they did it to a different group before and could very well do it again.

          On the plus side they can’t fuck with their own base too hard, so we probably don’t have to worry about some of that any time soon like the mental health checks. Anything already in place like CCW permits however can safely be abused, and blamed on the democrats if anyone in their base even cares (as they won’t be further affected by abuse of the existing laws than they already are.)
