@OneJerseySchorr When will people realize that restricting access to lawful gun owners will only cause governments to infringe on 2A rights?
Stricter laws do nothing to stop a criminal who’s intent on committing crimes.
Period.
Spain and Portugal should be paying reparations to Puerto Rico and the Caribbean islands. They plundered the land, committed genocide and ethnic cleansing. Does that go unanswered? To date there’s never even been a formal apology.
@kitchh_ @RiversStuart @JoeBiden And the divide got wider. Fast forward to today, we are seeing the very effects of hundreds of years of conditioning to violence and hatred culminating in various ways. This being just ONE.
@kitchh_ @RiversStuart @JoeBiden There are vast cultural differences between the US and other countries. For one, the US has been built on the backs of the dead natives who inhabited the land before. Furthermore, millions of slaves were imported and dehumanized for generations. All while the rich got richer
@RiversStuart @WriteDrawAct@JoeBiden Unfortunately, cultural differences between America and every other country in the world are evident and on full display. Understanding why US is in its current state would be to take into account how the country even came to be. This land was taken, bloodshed is engrained within
@WriteDrawAct @RiversStuart @JoeBiden Legislation will NOT stop someone who’s set on committing crimes from obtaining whatever weapons they seek to obtain. Bolstering the services already in place will make greater change than overhauling the entire second amendment. Change that happens gradually is proven last.
@kylegriffin1 “Mental health bullshit?” When it’s a sector that’s endured the most cuts in CT, he has the nerve to call mental health bullshit??? When we see the direct effect of what those cuts cause. What moral high ground does it take to understand that the problem is deeper than the gun.
@WriteDrawAct @RiversStuart @JoeBiden Or, we can properly fund mental health services, the very same ones that have endured countless budget cuts for over 2 decades. These things pass quietly every fiscal year locally and nobody bats an eye. We see the effect, and want to blame the tool? Versus the individual?
@RiversStuart @JoeBiden A nut will be a nut. Gun, knife, baseball bat, crowbar, if someone is hell bent on carnage, they’re gonna cause it. Repealing the 2nd amendment won’t stop nuts from getting guns. It’ll only stop law abiding citizens from getting them.
