It also seems to suggest with it’s condescending approach that there is nothing to be done about this.

The tax I feel like will be a hard sell. People will say (as I have) that is feels punitive. BUT, in the wake of something like this, maybe - and I feel icky saying that. Pitiful that tragedy is needed to further anything and hell, even then it doesn’t seem to always (Sandy Hook).

People like you who constantly try and disingenously shoot down any rational ideas about how to curb gun violence are the absolute worst.

That isn’t a realistic solution. But keep dreaming about that utopia of yours, moron.

I aim to please.

Exactly how am I standing in the way? I am literally discussing solutions, because that is what adults do - they have discussions. I am literally one of those people saying “fuck it, we need to fix it” and you are acting like I am an impediment? Get off your high horse and read my actual posts, dummy. Realistic…

That would likely take a Constitutional amendment, which I can’t see happening. I’m too lazy to google, but they are limited to hunting rifles, right? No pistols or anything?

...? Because I am trying to actually have a realistic conversation about gun control? Can you not handle being an adult?

What is an “assault rifle”? You mean automatic? Because those are generally either illegal/banned or a fortune to obtain. Nice try, dummy.

Out of the grays with this comment! This is quality Kinja.

Literally ANYTHING to do with restricting children’s access to firearms.

If you even wanna own a pistol, you have to get a license, regularly renew it and prove that you lock it away securely.

An AR-15 is a semi-automatic rifle. It literally is the same as a hunting rifle, but just looks scarier. And that first point is your fucking opinion. As someone who knows at least one person in that scenario, fuck you. Call me a cunt for acknowledging someone’s need to feel safe? Just promptly fuck yourself.

lol wut? I hate guns. I am the type that acknowledges reality, though.

Yes, they are. You are pretty fucking ignorant of American gun laws. Read up on them and then comment.

Basically, owning a gun will be prohibitively expensive/difficult for most people, and that’s perfectly fine by me.

When they commit the shooting, they become a criminal, fuckwit. Get some reading comprehension before you critique someone. Someone with the intent on shooting people (murder) isn’t going to sweat some firearm laws. They will get a gun and kill people.

Bumpstocks do not make a weapon fully automatic.

Can’t fault you there. The fucking NRA is the worst.

The first idea strikes me as punitive, not productive. No reason to tax a pistol a rape survivor carries or a rifle someone uses to hunt, you know what I mean?
