    there is no way in hell that you can implement “assault weapon” bans federally

    It’s so impossible it was done by Clinton and worked like I said by bringing down mass shootings by 45%.

    And went straight up by 250% as soon as Bush and the republicans let it expire and has been going up ever since…

    If you mean “now”, yeah, because the Republicans designed the entire modern discourse around these guns to have no room for any rational discussion what so ever. It’s become the very identity of right wing retards.

    As for “if they take away the guns, they’ll use trucks”, is a majestic load of grade A bullshit.

    You should be ashamed of yourself.

      The people like you that think the only reason that people commit mass murder is because its easy have your heads so far up your asses than these second amendment idiots. If people want to kill a lot of people they’ll find a way, it may be a bit more difficult for them but they’re not going to be like “oh well, I can’t get a gun, so I’ll just let my murderous rage dissipate”. Does everyone forget that Ted Kaczynski killed people with bombs? Timothy McVeigh killed 186 people with ANFO bombs. The 9/11 terrorists killed thousands of people either directly or indirectly with a fucking plane! Ted Bundy never used a gun either, he beat or strangled the women to death, same with Jeffrey Dahmer. Yet everyone seems to think that if you take away the guns, people will stop killing each other.
