I've come around on Gun Control.

Arm everyone, in fact make it constitutionally mandated that everyone is handed a pistol at birth that cannot be confiscated period and make all weapons legal: M16's, Independently targeting particle-beam phalanx. Tactical smart missiles, phase plasma pulse rifles, RPGs. Sonic electronic ball-breakers, nukes, knives, sharp sticks, everything.

If some Chud is gonna shoot up a Walmart I want that entire Walmart shooting everything and anything that moves funny. Just make everyone so goddamn terrified of each other.

There are over 390 million firearms in the US. If we extremely conservatively estimate that ten percent of them are semiauto and average $500 per gun that's $19.5 billion

The same Congress who says $5.6 billion over ten years is too expensive to stop loving over war widows is going to fork over three and a half times that much in one go for something that's probably going to hit single digit compliance rates?

What congress will/will not fund is arbitrary at best, yea, it's a good bet they wouldn't but dont kid yourself into thinking they wouldn't immediately throw 20 billion over five years to gently caress over the poor and personally enrich themselves.

Be a shame if both Senators from Kentucky contracted pneumonia in the hospital.

The most recent tweet on the @iamthespookster account was on August 3, the day of the shooting, when he retweeted a post saying, "Millenials have a message for the Joe Biden generation: hurry up and die."


You know if a shooter said water wet it wouldn't make news :colbert:, why is this news?

Yeah it's real obvious that none of the other survivors wanted to have anything to do with him, so he had to settle for getting a cheap photo with the only survivor who couldn't say no.

E it’s going to take us decades to repair what this administration has done.



Isn't there a gigantic Army hospital in Germany that gets used for people getting blown up in Iraq? This will certainly pay off.

What would be the most 2019 thing that could happen? That Epstein actually committed suicide.

That due to a miscommunication, Epstein was put into witness protection as a victim.

I work in the MIC and I swear to god I thought Bottom Line Up Front was a made up thing my manager came up with so he could role play a cool army dude, but here it is. So I guess I learned something today.

Everyone else says "tldr" and puts it at the end which is annoying when you want the summary at the beginning!

The thesis statement goes at the top, TL:DR at the bottom for those who skim.


edit: It also didn't help my credulity that he said it in meetings as BLUF(actually said the acronym): blah blah blah, instead of saying bottom line up front for those of us without the knowing of the lingo.

e: not every leftist is only punching up, of course, you get plenty of people in this thread and every other one making GBS threads on poor and rural trump voters

To be clear. They get poo poo on because they're voting red in TYOOL 2019 and directly electing officials who are propping up the above billionaire class, not because they're poor/rural.

My dad was yelling a while ago how "Comrade Sanders is gonna suspend Habeus Corpus and take all of your money and put all white people in re-education camps", and wouldn't come off of it after I reminded him that Forced Gay FEMA Death Camp Marriages(tm) didn't happen under Obama and that the current Republican president has literally thrown people into camps including at least one US citizen.
