Just this one time...

"Do I have this right? There should be no laws or restrictions on guns whatsoever, unless it's Hunter Biden, in which case he should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law
for a minor infraction? Do you have any idea just how totally batshit crazy you people sound?" ~Jeff Tiedrich

Isn't it interesting how easily the MAGA mind can be molded and remolded?

Does that mean Democrats will make AR15 courses mandatory in public schools?


After all, they are following MAGA on immigration and drill baby drill.

I don't know who this Jeff guy is, but to answer his question, "No, you don't have this right".

Before hitting send, I decided to look him up. Not surprised with the result.....

Per Reddit - "He's some sort of political activist with an unhealthy and preoccupying hatred for Donald Trump. I don't think he's mentally well, because he's made his entire identity hating Trump and having someone on your mind that much, especially in a negative way, is extremely concerning"

LOL. Then it’s no surprise one of the fanatics here would be a fan.

BHM: I don't know who this Jeff guy is, I decided to look him up..." on Reddit?

LOL also on Reddit:
"It’s really funny how Trump supporters gloat that they were there on Jan 6…....But then say that it was Antifa who stormed the capital. And…. At the same time they defend the insurrectionists saying the sentencing is too harsh on them…… and then Trump promising to pardon the insurrectionists if he gets reelected… but conservatives are totally not violent and Trump couldn’t have told them to be violent because it was Antifa and the CIA who were behind it.

This part is not correct,

There should be no laws or restrictions on guns whatsoever,

But you knew that, at least I hope you did.

What's right? Restrictions on violent criminals, age restrictions, mental health restrictions including some form of red flag process, to name a few.

The point is Republicans do not favor "no laws or restrictions on guns whatsoever" as Jeff the authority figure claims.

If I go on Reddit I can find people arguing that.

Noooo. We can find people arguing that accusations from the wife will strip them of their guns based solely on the wife's or GF's statements. Age restrictions should be much lower or not exist because there were none in 1789. Mental health is ambiguous and people can be denied guns based on social worker's assessments instead of a pro. Red flags are violations of basic rights, even though they seem to work in Florida. Y'all can't agree on anything but if a lib suggests it, it's wrong. :)

point is Republicans do not favor "no laws or restrictions on guns whatsoever" as Jeff the authority figure claims.

Hyperbole. Recognize it? Based on an electioneering stunt pulled by MAGA. So now, it appears Hunter Biden is being selectively prosecuted because it's good fodder for the MAGA folk. HB did it, so none of us minds if he spends some time, but make Trump's time right now! ;P

LOL. Ever heard of the Gun show loophole? Republicans refuse to close it.

"The rate of gun fatalities varies widely from state to state. Stricter laws = less death.
The states with the highest total rates of gun-related deaths counting murders, suicides and all other categories tracked by the CDC included Mississippi (33.9 per 100,000 people), Louisiana (29.1), New Mexico (27.8), Alabama (26.4) and Wyoming (26.1).
The states with the lowest total rates included Massachusetts (3.4), Hawaii (4.8), New Jersey (5.2), New York (5.4) and Rhode Island (5.6)."

"Firearms accounted for nearly 19% of childhood deaths (ages 1-18) in 2021, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Wonder database. Nearly 3,600 children died in gun-related incidents that year. That’s about five children lost for every 100,000 children in the United States. In no other comparable country are firearms within the top four causes of mortality among children."

Yes, I've read about it. IN fact there's a brisk trade with weapons being bought down south, moved to the north and sold there for extra $.

The Suicide Belt is out West in the high desert plains country.

We are very stupid when it comes to kids with firearms. Have you ever had a baby grab your finger tightly? They have one helluva grip, and they can easily come up with 5 lbs trigger pressure to pull a trigger. We need to start putting people in jail for at least 30 days for leaving their guns out. Just don't make them felons.

I know it gets me in trouble, but I've advocated for some time giving a tax credit for poor people for gun safes, along with a mandate (some exceptions), and working with Civic Groups to get guns safes everywhere. Make it part of reshaping people's thinking about gun safety. Bombard them with gun safety and make low kid deaths a point of civic pride.
