    I swear there will come a day when a mass gun nut uprising actually happens, and in that moment the gun rights debate will die a fiery death, because in a civil war scenario rigged explosive drones will be far more effective at holding off the inevitable crushing under federal boots than trying to shoot the people who have better guns and also hold home field advantage and also their kids aren’t actively ratting out their positions because they despise everything they stand for.

      If thousands of dead school children isn’t enough, a few thousand dead ammosexuals certainly won’t be.

      These are people who cannot accept the reality that their guns make them less safe. They each think themselves the exception to the sets of statistics that have no exceptions.

          Oh, only 500…since columbine. Thanks for minimizing them. I don’t ask for proof of how uncaring gun enthusiasts are but one you always provides it anyway. It’s amazing the research one can get a gun nut to do by the use of hyperbole.

          If I chanted the word to “school aged children” is no longer an exaggeration. Guns are the number one cause of death for children in america.

          If I change it to “school shooting victims” it’s an under count since hundred of thousands have been in the buildings during those school shootings.

            Considering 500 which isn’t just children is way different than thousands… yea it requires context

            If I chanted the word to “school aged children” is no longer an exaggeration. Guns are the number one cause of death for children in america.

            No it’s not, it had a single year during covid when everyone was closed in…but by all means…

            If I change it to “school shooting victims” it’s an under count since hundred of thousands have been in the buildings during those school shootings.

            I don’t know what you’re trying to say here? Can you clarify this.
