Happy Fourth Of July everybody, a pro gun rights day if there ever was one, here is a video to celebrate!
Yes, I don't mess around with Tannerite.feels like a funeral and not a celebration
I wholeheartedly agree, and to add to the list we should be thankful to live in a country where we have freedom and rights, including the freedom and right to KEEP AND BEAR ARMS!Yes, Happy Fourth of July!!!
Since we did not ask to be born in this country, we should be thankful that we were.
Of the hundreds of nations in this world, the United States of America is certainly one of the less bad nations.
Surely, generally speaking, we ordinary nobodies have more opportunities here than in Latin America or Africa or Asia.
While there are still many injustices in this nation, the little guy/gal here is treated better than in most other nations.
And as a lot of immigrants have shown, it IS often possible to become very prosperous through hard work -- and good luck.
We should all be proud of being Americans. Someone I know is especially happy because just this year he became an American. (His country allows dual citizenship.)
Given what happened in Highland Park today this is tone deaf at BEST.I wholeheartedly agree, and to add to the list we should be thankful to live in a country where we have freedom and rights, including the freedom and right to KEEP AND BEAR ARMS!

So what do you want to do, ban assault airplanes?Some TV news viewers were traumatised by 9/11 because they could actually see real people jumping off the towers.
And since it happened in Illinois which is one of the least gun friendly states in the country where they have no respect for the 2A, it just goes to show that gun control doesn't work.Given what happened in Highland Park today this is tone deaf at BEST.

And you can't buy handguns and take them from the store in a state that you're not a resident of, not legally. If you buy a handgun in a state you don't live in you have to have it sent to an FFL dealer in your home state and pick it up from the FFL dealer in your state while complying with all the gun laws of your state when you go to pick it up. As for long guns you might or might not be able to take them from the store with you if you don't live in the state where you buy them depending on what state you live in and depending on what state you're buying them in. Its not so simple as crossing into another state, buying all the guns you want, and crossing back, there's more to it than that.Gee bud, first off when you are surrounded by states like Indiana and Wisconsin it makes it all the more easy for gun obsessives to break the law, so crying “gun control doesn’t work” when it’s laughably easily to just cross over the border to states with less restrictive laws is pretty amusing.
Nobody's asking you to be friendly to guns, just be friendly to those who choose to exercise their 2A rights and don't give them a hard time for exercising such rights.Secondly, nobody is obligated to “respect” America’s gun delusions in the first place, and likewise nobody’s obligated to be “friendly” to guns in the first place. Deal with it.

And the fact that Illinois is surrounded by such state is irrelevant since Illinois residents can't get guns from such states anyway.None of which changes the fact that Illinois is surrounded by states which are far more lenient on guns, which directly hampers its own policies. Therefore going “gun control doesn’t work” when neighboring states are actively complicit in helping skirt the laws is utterly nonsensical.
Furthermore the shooter in Highland Park bought the gun he used in Illinois.None of which changes the fact that Illinois is surrounded by states which are far more lenient on guns, which directly hampers its own policies.

And that is a moot point considering the shooter got his gun in Illinois.None of which changes the fact that Illinois is surrounded by states which are far more lenient on guns, which directly hampers its own policies.

And as the Highland Park shooter showed, you don't need to get a gun that's been trafficked into the state if you're going to be a shooter in Illinois, but aside from that we need better law enforcement if we want to stop such stuff. The police should've stopped him from going up on the roof and shooting all those people.It’s not a moot point in the slightest considering the fact thousands of guns get trafficked in from out of state. A couple more traffickers got busted only a couple weeks ago.

Which makes your squealing about “gun control not working” rather meaningless.

Gee, if that were the case there wouldn’t be so many incidents of guns being trafficked in in the first place.
