Garak said it best:

I’ll be shocked if this passes. If this would just impact MOC then it would definitely pass. Put since this will impact white men the republicans will say no. I look forward to republicans saying they can kill without a gun.

Ive bought and sold guns myself on that site.

Shit, I was going to drop a “well actually” on you thinking that everything you buy through that site needed to go through an FFL dealer before you actually got it, but the first item I saw had a workaround for that.

Indeed, but how long before the NRA comes out against this? NRA wants all the customers it can get.

Just less of them in general. The UK has a domestic violence problem and I’m sure others from other countries will attest to that as well. While guns can be an increased risk factor these sorts of people have no problem with using other household items like knives or even their barehands to murder their partners.

Currently, the federal definition of domestic violence is limited to people who have lived together... Current federal laws also don’t cover family members—say a sister or a daughter who has been abused.

They also need to fix the loophole that allows someone to have a gun when there is a temporary restraining order, but not yet a permanent restraining order.

This is better than nothing, but it’s also probably everything that will be done to address the mentalhealth issue in our country and the problem of mass thinkings.

You know, if you’ve actually been convicted of assault, I’m okay with you not being able to buy a gun regardless of whether it was your girlfriend, your father, or a stranger. You typically have to injure someone pretty badly for it not to be shrugged off or treated as disorderly conduct.

Who cares?

As we all have seen these past weeks (months, years, decades, centuries) domestic abusers are a real problem.

you seem like you’d be really fun to hangout with.

That’s the medical definition, not the vernacular definition of “narcotics” which is broader.

Starred for pharmaceutical-related pedantry. I think a lot of media outlets use “narcotics” as a catch-all for any substance with abuse potential because it’s a word people automatically associate with illicit substances.

Even with all that smoke they still think he’s harmless.

If you’ve gotten yourself banned from the local mall because folk are concerned about whether you use it as your local cruising spot to troll for minors to sexually assault, you might be a pedophile.

Ayn Rand devotee Rand Paul? I thought he only got passionate about destroying the social safety net.
