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

Yeah but that photo definitely screams unibomber over deer hunter

A rifle, ammunition, baseball cap, pair of binoculars, topo map, and camp lantern scream unibomber? Maybe if there was lengths of iron pipe, electrical wire, etc it might scream unibomber. But since the picture only shows items typical for a hunting cabin, I'm not seeing what you're seeing .

Not unless tars thinks every hunter is a unibomber after playing a bit too much FarCry.

Because you don't get much more stereotypical deer-camp than a coleman lantern and a map on a wooden picnic table the night before opening-day.

In fairness I'm not a hunter, but neither are most people. Might have worked well in 60's, but this is probably the reaction most people are gonna have today.

Can you not tell the difference between those two photos though?

Sure if you live in farm country 1/4 mile from your next neighbor and hunt to eat and fend off wild animals that are a threat fine have your gun.

But don't try to get NYC or the high density states of the north east/large cities to let you have those same weapons.

What about the 2-legged variety of predators?

How DO we arm the other 11?

With shot and shell, of course!

Glad to see this consensus. The ban on pistol stocks and SBR's is so stupid. A pistol can kill lots of people. A rifle can as well. Hell, even a shotgun can create a tragedy that shocks the nation.

By the way, any additional tragedies caused by a suppressor is going to be so so so so overlooked by the usefulness of them. So many other things you can ban before even restricting a suppressor will do any good.

Why not? There are city dwellers that hunt as well, they just have to travel to where they hunt.

Then you can store your gun/rent one outside of the city/metropolitan area. Literally no need to have it with you in the city.

Except, you know, the need to defend yourself from two-legged predators.

You keep mentioning need. Need is irrelevant, there's plenty of things we don't NEED, that's not a reason to ban it.

More guns=less safe. There is a reason we have 5 times the homicide rate than Europe.

I don't carry (at least not yet) I have to wait till they start the next academy. Also LEOs carrying isn't the same as any random joe carrying. Edit- Also wouldn't unless they make us have a work weapon.

Yet despite having far more guns than everyone else, the US doesn't even crack the top 50 in murder rates...

Yes it's because you're wracked with poverty, social atomisation, and police brutality towards minority groups -- minority groups who you want to disarm.

I'd imagine kangaroos are much nicer tbh

This is why, quite famously, the rich and powerful don't have any people with guns around them, for safety.

Not gonna lie, that's a pretty sick burn.

But there's no one here as happy as the double sledder lad.
