I'm LMAO at the media trying to tie it directly to Trump. I see the Russian convo like this:
Igor:"Hey wouldn't it be funny if we put a complete piece of shit in office. A guy so bad he wouldn't even know he wasn't supposed to be the prez"
Ivan: "I double dog dare you"
Igor: "IDK man. Where would we find a boob like that?"
Ivan: " I triple dog dare you"
Igor: "You're on!"


Hey quit trying to blow up my spot as a russian spy

Here's a similar argument I get that's a cop out:

"We can't do anything to stop school shootings because these people are crazy and will get guns and shoot people."



I was about to respond to Primate's post but this boils it down better. This is the excuse for not banning assault weapons, requiring extensive background checks, etc. People want their guns at the expense of lives and they don't care. Politicians don't want to lose their NRA blood money. Other countries have shown us what works but it comes down to selfishness in this country.


The United States is an individualistic society and that will never change. You can't be a liberal and fight for rights/freedoms in one department and completely ignore them in the other. It also is hilarious that liberals literally don't know shit about guns so them trying to come up with effective legislation is laughable. Agreed with fuck the NRA though.

I'm going to guess I know a whole lot more about guns than you. Not everyone on this issue thinks AR-15 stands for "Assault Rifle-15".

I do find it hilarious that assault rifles have been rebranded as MSRs as a bit of propaganda.



Congrats, your 5% of the liberals that actually reads about issues before commenting. Rather than yapping on the moral high ground.

I also don't think Igor realizes there's a difference between "leftists" and "liberals."


Leftists are complete and utter garbage.
But liberals are all pretty much the same on taking away gunz

Your gun won't protect you if your house is broken into (if you have it safely stored).

Your gun won't protect you from the government if they really want what you have.

All they are is expensive toys that make you feel more powerful. They make pills for that now.


Those are all irrelevant.
Its a freedom/right you deserve to have.
Not worth debating those points

This is false. I see a lot of division between people who want all-out bans, bans on specific guns, or just better legislation on background checks and methods of purchase. There's also a whole other debate over researching gun violence from a public health perspective.

Nydia Velázquez's bill, H.R.3987 - Protecting Americans from Gun Violence Act of 2017, is one to look into. It would place a fee on background checks and the revenue from those fees would fund gun violence research at the CDC. It's probably not a perfect bill, but I agree with the general premise. Most of the cosponsors are from the Progressive Caucus, though, so I doubt it will get any movement in this Congress.



I don't quite think that's the case. Every facebook post I've seen is more on the line of "why do we need guns", "gunz r bad mkay", etc. Hell even on here it seems to be the general tone. I don't think any person on any part of the spectrum is against research (at least a large majority should be for it). It's shitty that there are barriers in place that prevent that.

It was relevant in 1780s. It was maybe relevant in the 1860s. It sure as hell isnt relevant now in this modern society.

You're basing your entire opinion of a larger group of people off of some idiots on your facebook feed? Great sample.


Nah, some idiots on FE. And literally on every chat/forum/social media I've been on.

Says the non-voter. Respectfully leave this discussion to adults who are serious and will vote because that's the way we're going to make change happen.


Your right, my one vote could have changed the game, silly me
Sorry hilldawg, it was all my fault :(
