    I’m sick of literalist 2a interpretations that ignore half the words in the amendment. Check your own bullshit, k thx.

    A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

    Stop acting like it’s only the last few words of the sentence. Stop acting like it matters what the musket toting founding fathers knew about bump stocks and armor piercing rounds. It’s absurd and stupid.

    If you won’t concede to common sense regulation of firearms then the regulators are going to keep coming. I’m a firearm owner and prior service army officer, you fucking casuals, you mealteam six types who think you’re entitled to 20th century weapons of war and then keep murdering civilians again and again are the real problem. Be realistic, how many mass shootings should we tolerate before trying SOMETHING?

    How many more dead children will it take chickpea?

      Thanks for proving my point. You don’t give a shit what the supreme court has to say about it.

          I think that our society is going to drive certain people to do horrific things regardless of any regulations we could ever come up with, so imposing limitations on people’s ability to defend themselves and their communities will only ever increase the body count. We need to fix the way we treat each other. We don’t need to be worrying about what kind of handle is on a weapon.

            so you think people are inherently untrustworthy yet you want more armed people.

            Look bright lights, the fucking country already has more guns than people. YOUR AMAZING PLAN IS NOT WORKING.

            I know what it is - you don’t give a fuck because it hasn’t impacted your life.

            YET.

            It will, eventually, then you’ll grow a soul.

              I just wanted to point out that the supreme court can effectively be ignored and provided an example. You’re jumping to insane conclusions and getting really worked up about it. Chill the fuck out and go get yourself some counseling.

                It upsets you that you can’t come up with a sensible argument, I get it. Being on the wrong side of history is a shit place. You can project your frustrations on me, call me angry, suggest I get counseling but none of it is gonna bring back the dead innocents from your stupid hobby.

                Gonna block you now so I never have to read another stupid comment, enjoy the remainder of your apparently wretched existence.
