Who could've predicted that "GUNS EVERYWHERE RAAAWWWR" would lead to confrontations between permit holders, I'm shocked, etc.

I've been watching a lot of Deadwood lately. Maybe if we build some open carry saloons, the people who want open carry will just shoot each other.

at least in the context i saw it in, that macro was placed as "pro gun rights people, your double standards are exposed by dipset" so the racism is maybe a little less overtly intended

One argument recently favored by the pro-gun media and lobbyists is that gun control is inherently racist, because poor blacks need free access to guns to protect themselves and their families from inner city violence. The USA is kinda fucked up.

fuck man, everyone here seems to have mistaken guns for their goddamn lungs or something, it is completely impossible to float the idea that they are hurting people. everyone is apparently in chains unless they own a gun, such is the pathology of us culture. they are all in chains but a stick isnt going to help w that.

ha i didn't mean that to sound sexist, i'd probably have said "boy" there too. anyway anytime i've had an opportunity to fire a gun i've politely declined (since i hit adulthood i mean, i fired a few in my teenage years.) those things terrify me.

Danas questioned why the instructor in Arizona was standing immediately to the left of the Uzi, which would have recoiled in that direction.
"It's an awful shame," he said. "He shouldn't have been to the left side of the gun... But that child should not have been shooting anything other than a single-shot firearm."
Danas, whose daughters are 11 and 13, said his girls learned to shoot when they were 4 years old, with a single-shot, .22-caliber pistol.

I think what you need to ask yourself is, "Will I be a cooler parent/person after my 9-yo daughter has fired an Uzi?" and if the answer is yes, kill yourself.
