Fuck guns
Fuck religion, alcohol, politics, financial inequality, unaffordable health care and brain dead sports fans.
Those too.
Except politics, that makes no sense. Politics is literally public debate. You don’t like people trying to solve their problems through open discourse?
I was thinking about most of the bullshit that is part of politics in a more broad sense, I suppose. It would be the hate filled vitriol that keeps spewing out of the mouths of politicians, that I refer to. It’s also lightly referencing how political wrangling has caused endless years of pain in some cases.
To summarize, anything negative you can associate with political dysfunction is what I meant. Putting in a full summary into my short quip probably wasn’t ideal, but since we are talking about it now, cool. Still, it wasn’t initially clear, so it is totally fair to question.
(Politics can refer to actions taken while governing which can relate to debate or discussion: “His decision to arrest the man was purely a political choice.” In that context, an action is taken because of past (or future) debate. Politics, aside from its proper definition, is a little flexible in its use, proper or not. “Political correctness” is a weird usage in that regard as it encompasses an assumed standard.)
But of course when corporations do this, they are not dissolved or closed for 100 years.
A corporation shot an 8 year old while trying to shoot an 18 year old? Corporations suck and I’m not defending them in any way, but it seems like a weird comparison to make.
A quote from the judge according to the article:
“I just can’t believe being evicted would justify picking up a handgun in that small of a space with children present”
What I find particularly concerning about this is that this implies that being evicted would justify picking up a handgun provided you’re not in an enclosed space with children present. Why in the actual fuck would there be any further qualification after “I just can’t believe being evicted would justify picking up a handgun”. Full stop. You’re being evicted. You fucked up. Firearms don’t belong in that conversation at all with the only possible exception I can think of being if you are being directly and illegally threatened with a firearm.
Ugh.
They were just listing all of the reasons why it was a bad idea, not qualifying each reason as “okay if the other ones didn’t occur”.
oh no i shouldn’t be laughing
Thankfully no guns were hurt during the incident.
-Republicans probably
The problem is there wasn’t a nearby cop that could have shot everyone, that would have sold the problem.
