Is it time to talk about guns?

Well, they’re inanimate objects, so…..

 

All Quite On The Western Front.

 

vigilantism ... what could go wrong?

Oh yea. Ahmaud Arbery*

 

wow. way to illustrate hostility*

 

on a slightly hipp-er harmonious note...

 

I have lost track of the numbers but there were at least four or five people shot and killed here where I live ... just this week. One was stabbed and killed.

 

FTFY

 

So why are these mass shooters cowards? Most of them end up killing themselves. Must be snowflakes.
Once again I don’t buy the argument that these guys are always mentally ill, and don’t know what they are doing. The shooter in San Jose knew what he was doing.

I dont know about cowards but ANYONE that takes multiple lives is mentally ill, normal sane people dont do that

 

We supposed to guess what FTFY means?

 

Means "fixed that for you" in anagram.

Meanwhile, it's officially been 1,031 days since I moved to the great state of Pew-Pew (Thats Arizona fyi) and as yet I have resisted all urges to drive around at night in fairly desolate, rural areas shooting at street signs. (This is how we define responsible gun ownership in these part. )

 

FTFY also stands for "Fuck That, Fuck You".

 

Right right, my bad. But I could swear Scratcho was asking literally what ftfy meant, not for a contextual explanation.

 

yet if they are wearing a uniform and using a govt issued gun and are doing their killing on a battlefield we pin medals on them and worship them as "heroes".

 

You are correct Fritz.

It's time to work on education, mental health and social justice. Concentrating on guns is stupid because it doesn't address the root problem, the murderous mindset, the violent attitude.
Or you can just try to sweep the dust under the carpet and pretend that guns operate people and not the other way around.

 

I fear a society where the government owns all the weapons and the people has none, nor knows how to use them in an effective fashion. I fear dictatorship and I come from a family of Italian Communist Partisans that faced wounds , jail, torture and death. That's all I've got to add about this topic now and forever. End of transmissions.
