Gun Control 2022 (IV) - Gun Rights, Control, & Government

[The Emerald Legion]

Are we still allowed to call old men with shotguns "Fudds" given that Elmer Fudd no longer has a shotgun?

He doesn't? How will he catch that wascally wabbit?

But for some reason Dynamite is ok.

The hunter has set up an ambush for the prey that has alluded him for many years.

I would think a scyth would create much more gruesome wounds then a shotgun.

Well going by the article, it is saying that 10million(circa) own 50% of the total firearms in the US.
Still an impossible task, let alone it's bullshit as the total number owned by any one person is going to be an unknown let alone the total number of firearms in private hands.

Well, we THINK there's about 450 million civilian guns, +/-.

So that would mean the average member of that 3% owns 22.5 guns.

... I don't think I know a single person who owns 22 guns. I know a few who own 4 or 5.

I think the average person I know owns a mid-teens number of guns? Something in that neighborhood.

Huh. A quick search shows Yosemite Sam is also gunless. Weird that the execs at WB would grandfather in all the TNT and ACME, but not Fudd's shotgun.

Well who didn't see this coming?
Rational Riot Response: Kenosha Area Gun Sales Skyrocket
And before the article was pulled by a local news org, people in the surrounding neighborhoods by downtown Kenosha, started armed watch groups, even with blocking off one side of the street going in and out of the neighborhoods.

Found a twitter post, from the news org. Shows two guys standing armed.

Sounds 'bout right. Kenosha has a surprisingly high percentage of military vets.

Y'know. I will never understand this type of thinking. Yes, people passed unconstitutional rules and laws before. No, it's not for the best.

Not to mention that his apparent opinion of Rittenhouse is either propaganda, or ignorant.

LOL Darrell A.H. (AH = AssHole?) Miller is an idiot. Seriously the AR15 is a "high powered" rifle? Then what is a .338 Lapua? An extra super duper high power?
The rest is nothing more than misconstrued/lies about the intent of the second amendment and the heller decision. All in all Darrell here is a dipshit.

Ugh, NOT helping.

The thing is in some cases there is room for reasonable disagreement on the subject. But to have such a disagreement the person you disagree has to actually no something about that topic. The fact that many people advocating gun grabs like this idiot do not know the difference between and intermediate cartridges and high powered cartridges means they can be disregarded because many know nothing about guns.

Even CNN cannot stomach this;

Nancy Pelosi, gun grabber got her hair done illegally because she fuck you she is above the law she wants forced on you.

That is the problem with gun grabbing plutocrats. Not only are they wrong on the issues, but worse so many are elitists (of course with their own armed guards) who think they are nobility above us lowly peasants. AR-15s only for the rich and connected.

well we already knew that with Clinton and her email scandal. lowly people like us get the book thrown at us and have our rights such as the right to bear arms taken while the uppity government people get to keep there's more simply Do as I say not as I do

Technically the whole idea behind the BoR is a total rejection of nobility.

You might want to change that last bit. Autistic screaming is a nono here. I will edit it out if you change it.

They changed the no no a while back.

We have adjusted our handling of "reee." We now only really regard it as actionable when it is used in reference to someone else. In this context, I'm not seeing it as actionable.

Indeed, but if gun grabbers cared about the BoR, they would not be gun grabbers. (Note to mods I am not saying everyone advocating any gun control is necessarily in the group, but denying the right to bear arms to the poor but giving it to the rich only is a rejection of a critical point in the bill of rights).

I don't think he's gonna brutally dismember Bugs Bunny with the scythe

I mean obviously that is the intent of the character, the implication. The implications and intent of threatening to dismember someone with a massively oversized scythe is not better than doing it with a shotgun.

Sure Bugs never gets actually permanently hurt by the scythe, but he never got permanently hurt with the shotgun either.

It is Elmer threatening to dismember Bugs. Sure he always fails, but his murderous intent and inevitable failure is the same regardless of the weapon he is brandishing.
