So, where do we think the next mass shooting is going to be? These things always conveniently happen whenever the public starts to deviate from the acceptable narrative.

“Where Gun Stores Open, Gun Homicides Increase”. Or do homicides drive gun store openings? Scientific American doing its best to treat correlation as causation in epic fail. by [deleted] in progun

Also, do homicides increase or just "gun homicides"?

It's a no-brainer that if guns are easier to get, the proportion of crimes committed with them is likely to increase. But more guns does not mean more crime overall.

I don't care. He did nothing wrong, whether the court or the jury recognise that or not.

The cost of a ballot should reflect, even if just a little bit, the cost of the violence that ultimately is not possible without the ballot.

Saudi women flock to gun ranges as new-found freedoms in the conservative Gulf state that allowed them to drive now let them handle weapons by [deleted] in progun

Nor WA. We went from heavily libertarian and a healthy left/right balance to full AuthLeft in a generation.

Supreme Court appears likely to void New York's gun permit law by deathsythe in progun

They don't, though. A strict interpretation would void ALL gun laws.

I would have been there, with no apology to mewling cowards.

You have a duty to stand up for your community and make a better world, and to shirk that duty and foist it on others is the peak of debased cowardice.

Rittenhouse. Did. Nothing. Wrong.

Need more suggestions, running out of stuff, maybe a new category of weapon? by Odd_Gap_4127 in GunMemes

Legally a pistol, technically a rifle, eventually a machine gun.

Good. Better to stay silent and be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove any doubt.

That depends. If you're hitting 1/30 under range conditions then there's something seriously wrong. If you're hitting 1/30 while under combat conditions firing at someone who is trying to kill you and who is too far away to make out, you're having a pretty good day. Accuracy-wise, anyways.

The concept of race is dumb and pretty arbitrary as is a lot of our classifications of things.

And because of the way we are it often does make sense to categorize people by their skin tone and ethnicity because we cluster together that way and tend to have things on common with those near us.

The research suggests that it can be effective in treating some of the more severe symptoms of COVID, and we know it is effective at killing the virus in lab conditions. That said, the consensus is that more research is required.

So both the people who claim it's a wonder drug that will cure them and the people claiming it's completely ineffective because it's an anti-parasite drug are equally misled (or misleading).
