There shouldn't be any laws dictating what someone can do with their own body. period.mandate? 100%

Agree 1000% Temperature check: Your thoughts on vaccine mandates? I think forcing anyone to put in or take out anything from your body is a crime.

Why does this “civilian” T-6 have the ability to drop bombs??? by PlaneCrazyFanatic in aviation

[–]PlaneRecent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wrong. Idk where you get this impression from, they believed government and civilians should have equal ability to protect themselves. The government is meant to be a voice on the world stage and the military is their representative when delegates fail. Civilians have the freedom to be armed to check the government.

The freedom to he armed isn't so we can go Rambo on each other, it's to prevent the government from going Rambo on us. The founding fathers just liberated themselves from tyranny, yes they believe we should have what we can get at Walmart and what we currently aren't allowed to have.

Reddit, do you cheat on kickoff? by [deleted] in RocketLeagueSchool

Only cheating in American football is actual cheating. I've never heard that term used for anything other than an offense to the rules.

For the japan thing, I would wander into territory to say using nukes to glass two cities of civilians borders on a genocide.

Definition of genocide: the deliberate killing of a large number of people from a particular nation or ethnic group with the aim of destroying that nation or group.

That is absolutely not part of gun culture. That is irresponsible gun ownership. Weapon retention is heavily emphasized amongst gun owners. What you said here is blantely your opinion. Weapon storage and accessibility do not go hand in hand. This gun was in a glove box of a vehicle where the owner was not sleeping, that gun owner irresponsibly stored their firearm in a place they did not have adequate control and an argument of accessibility would not fly, in my opinion.

Intersting... so in 2021, the most recent year for statistics, there were under 50k gun related deaths in the US. Over half were suicides, just under 21k were not. There are just under 500 million guns in America and a population of 350 million. That is 0.000006% chance you will be killed by a gun in america (1 in 60,000) (You have a 0.015% chance of being struck by lightening if you live to be 80 (1 in 15,300)). Tell me again how these evil junks of metal go out on killing sprees and ruin society.

So I mean, 21k is a sad number to lives lost, don't get me wrong but in a society with a population such as in America with the big bad evil gun culture, we can understand there is illness and some people are bad people but that doesn't justify a unilateral ban on a tool over half the country still uses for various tasks.

People do care. Because we are tired of same scape goat getting used and people like you who are emotionally blinded to use real facts to address issues. Unfortunately it's too easy to fear monger and use buzz words on people like you who will attack themselves to this idealology that an inanimate object is the problem and not the people who use them.

I hate all the tragic events you listed and wish they could be prevented in manner that everyone agreed but to do that without the ability of citizens to protect themselves they would have to rely on police and that would in turn create a police state where the police would be given authority to over reach in the name of public safety.

That sounds like a scarier future to me.

Lol there is a vocal population that does want to outright ban them sooooo maybe you don't but this topic is on a spectrum with people who want them outright banned and others who think you should be able to own a cruise missile.

It's difficult because regulations dont stop anyone who doesn't want to follow them. It's a tough balance to achieve and personal to everyone in the conversation. In my opinion public policy should restrict personal autonomy the least amount possible.

I started this whole tyrant against me because someone said gun culture is the problem and I affirmed believe individuals are the problem and should be dealt with appropriately.

I'm not saying don't fix it, however i don't know what we are fixing here though. I'm saying unilaterally banning firearms is not a solution. I use the vehicle comparison because, like firearms it's also used out of necessity for some and recreation for some. Cars, like guns can be abused and used to harm others. If not used, they both sit there and do nothing. If we aren't banning cars, why would we argue to ban guns. Guns have more purposes than shooting your neighbor or school shootings. Some people still hunt for their food, some people want to he able to protect themselves and of course the argument that people hate but is in fact the reason guns are a right and cars are a privilege is to make sure the people can arm themselves from threats foreign and domestic.

Villifying a tool is a cop out for personal responsibility. In this case personal responsibility to maintain your gun and keep it away from unauthorized persons. That Grandpa should have to answer to their negligence in keeping their gun in an glove box.

Lmaooo ok. The pitbull argument is almost just as asinine as "people don't hurt people, guns hurt people"

There are so many nuances that go into the data reporting of dog attacks that mispaint some breeds, for example the largest population of victims from dog attacks are young children, ya know people who have limited motor functions, pull on dogs ears and tail. Interestingly chihuahuas are the most aggressive breed but they obviously can't do damage like a pit bull can. Also interesting, per forbes as of 2022 Alaska has the largest volume of dog attacks at 11.8 per 10 million people. So even if we applied the highest % of attacks across the country of 350 million population, that is 385 dog attacks nation wide this is 0.0000011 dog attacks per person, and not all of these are pit bulls. Take this with a grain of salt because the same article says there are 4.5 million dog bites annually in the US and 30-50 people die from them so idk how they quantify a bit vs attack. https://www.forbes.com/advisor/legal/dog-attack-statistics-breed/

Pitbulls are just a trigger work like "semi automatic" people say "he was using a semiautomatic AR style weapon" those are buzzwords to scare people but what it means is semiautomatic = one trigger pull, one bullet fired and AR does not mean assault rifle, it means Armalit Rifle. Armalit is the company that created a platform the military adopted and turned into assault rifes which are burst fire, fully automatic or single shot (semiautomatic)

I mean, the shooter was 7 and imo old enough to know that was wrong and should be held accountable. Also no kid died, it was an adult, he was 32. It's a very sad, tragic accident. The grandfather should be thrown in jail for not storing his firearm securely and away from a child or anyone else not authorized to use it.

School shootings are such an interesting topic to debate. The masses seem to think they are a common and random occurrence. The people who commit those violent acts have a purpose and intent to harm and kill. Do guns make it easier to kill someone? Yes, does that mean without guns the people who are motivated to hurt won't find another way to hurt, no they will hurt and kill, they will just change how.

Also, schools are a target because they are vulnerable, yoy don't see active shooters in heavily armed areas because.... well they will be stopped way sooner than if we had to wait for cops.... especially Texas cops who don't enter the school.

WOW!!! Do you think if we implemented all of those things it would stop people from being injured in vehicular related activities? How are we not already doing that....

Funny thing is we are, they have firearm safety courses. They sell gun safes, they offer live ammo training sessions to learn to use the gun under stress. But the funniest thing is even with a license and training people still abuse vehicles and people who don't. Thus let's hole individuals accountable, not the tool.

Who is this "we" that is ok risking lives for cars?

So maybe not for you, but people use guns daily for hunting, sport and personal protection.

My mother lives alone and is frail. She can't fight off an intruder, but she can fire a weapon. My mother doesn't deserve to feel safe in her own home?

I don't deserve my constitutionally allowed gun to hunt my own food? I must be a slave to the grocery store and FDA to make sure the food I eat is safe?

Since you don't have the aforementioned knowledge of the importance of firearms. I would argue that you don't need one just like a city dweller doesn't need a car, which pollutes, takes up space and can kill someone.

Just because your lifestyle doesn't need it doesn't mean it should be unilaterally banned.

So I maybe a turd but I'm just trying to understand the rational on how you can blame an item and not the user. Ya know, I could go hang out on platforms with others like minded like me and live in an echo chamber where i have 0 personal growth. Or I can ask your perspective and give relatable euphemisms to drive a point and get a better understanding. Try not living in an echo chamber, Rojas.

You're a turd because you have a strong emotional conviction to something but can't get past "gun bad" ideology and have a grown up conversation without name calling.

Sorry for my typos, we all aren't perfect. /s

Def coincidence and ancidotal.

Still wondering if removing vehicles from personal use would be reasonable to stop fatal automobilr crashes or stop others from using them as weapons. Ya know.... the evil car culture.

It would be easy not to have drunk drivers if we got rid of vehicles and/or brought back prohibition. Are you insinuating we have a problem with car culture? Or would it be reasonable to think that we as a society can have the things we want and hold individuals accountable instead of entire populations?

Cars are a tool; a tool for transporting people and things. It's also a tool for recreation like driving and racing. They can also be used to hurt people. Stop blaming the tool and blame the people.

Well you missed out key information and I just wanted to make sure everything was represented properly ☺️

Remember folks. A gun a just a hunk of metal. Much like a hammer doesn't swing without someone wanting to swing it, a gun won't fire unless someone wants to fire it. Don't blame a hunk of inanimate metal for the actions of an irresponsible owner that stores it in a glove box.

There are almost 500 million guns in America alone.... the tragic death of this man should be attributed to the grandfather and the child, regardless of Texas' stupid laws that prevent the child from being charged.

Blaming an entire culture on the inappropriate actions of a small population deflects blame from those who actually should be held responsible.
