@BeauTFC Beau, could you make a video on how to criticize Israel without being antisemitic? I'm supportive of Palestine, but see some using phrases like "river to the sea" or "Zionism is terrorism" without being fully aware of the history and subtext behind them.
@POTUS I urge you to put https://t.co/IKpGJ2tnT0 into a bill. As of now, there is not any path forwards for gun violence legislation. This is a great way to boost those bipartisan credentials, and get something passed that would be effective and broadly popular.
@ConorLambPA@POTUS Conor, I'm disappointed. I thought you were a rare candidate who would support pragmatic gun control, while avoiding ineffective and draconian bans. You've lost a great deal of respect from me. I will be backing Fetterman instead.
@NoOrdinaryGhost @CONSMILITIA@AddictCl@BreitbartNews In the past, actual military weapons were used in the Battle of Athens, 1947, to overthrow a corrupt local government. Recently, they have been used for self defense often. https://t.co/Hqk2RHeIpl
@pjcadams@swisstexas@tribelaw@LeaKThompson So that civilians can better defend themselves against all enemies to their safety and liberty. Imagine defending against a pack of wild hogs, or multiple home intruders, or a rogue government without an semi auto with detachable mags.
@tribelaw I can list many good reasons. Sport, hunting, self defense, to defend against tyranny, etc. Not needed for hunting of defense? Completely false. Try to eliminate feral hog packs with a fixed magazine, bolt action rifle. As for defense: https://t.co/Hqk2RHeIpl
@kimgoodspeed1@tribelaw This is highly dependent on the definition of "mass shooting." Change it at all, correlation disappears. It also had no effect on homicides. There is also an issue trying to quantify such a rare event. You are more likely to be struck by lightning than die by mass shooting.
@lorez99@tribelaw@julietresists Gun control in Australia failed miserably. They completely banned semi automatic rifles and shotguns, and pump action shotguns as well, confiscating them from previous owners, and there was still no statistical effect.
@IronStache Legally owned machine guns, which assault rifles are legally, have only been used in 3 crimes since 1934. They are not the problem. AR-15's? More die of hands and feet than them. They are also less deadly than other guns.
