Using Boost for Lemmy, I got an obvious political ad from the right asking to sign a petition to scrap the gun “ban” in Canada (it’s a registry not a ban).
Now I understand this is an ad but I don’t appreciate having propaganda from the right injected into my browsing on lemmy. Have better ads, or let us report them.
I’m opposed to blanket gun bans, but I’m not sure I’d trust “The Gun Blog”as an unbiased provider of reliable information.
That said, the proposal that pissed me off the most was to ban all firearms that are capable of accepting a larger than five round magazine. You want to ban 10 round magazines, fine, I don’t need 10 rounds for my tikka. But banning my target rifle because ten rounders exist for it? Fuck right off.
