Tell me again, over the freshest corpses of murdered children, how oppressed you’d be if we took away your AR-15s, you pathetic selfish wimp.
I’m not defensive about taking people’s guns. People who “need” military-style weapons to go to Target are deranged and dangerous — and a threat to everyone.
Guns don’t have rights. And there’s no right to endanger other people, either with AR-15s or by willfully spreading deadly viruses.
Reckless endangerment isn’t “freedom.” It’s criminal negligence and irresponsibility — at the minimum. Often, the outcome is mass murder. Unlike every other country on Earth, America is “special.” Mass murder by people using guns in America and ONLY in America is commonplace and so routine that most mass murders don’t even make the news. They aren’t noteworthy.
Banning AR-15s would be a very modest move. We’ve banned military-style weapons before and for the 10 years that they were illegal, mass murders dropped. Once the ban was lifted, those murders skyrocketed. It’s not rocket science to recognize that proliferation of weapons that facilitate mass murder will result in MORE mass murder.
It’s both common sense and observable reality.
