If only there was something we could do about this😔
The gun nuts have made it perfectly clear they’re not willing to budge on any legislation. It’s going to get to the point where their opposition totally adopts the polar opposite viewpoint of just taking them all away.
I’m there already, fuck guns. I’ve lost all sympathy for their arguments about “home safety” and “keeping the government in check” (fuckin LOL at that one). They should be illegal and anyone caught with one automatically sentenced to 10 years. I think harsh penalties and zero tolerance are our only options since the gun lobbies won’t even consider anything reasonable. They backed us into this position and this is going to keep happening until we do something meaningful about it.
And then the Supreme Court tells you “no” and that’s it.
This country is fucked.
Some people live way out in the woods and need to defend themselves from bears, moose and to hunt for food. Bolt action, shotguns and revolvers should be acceptable. This blanket ban all guns rhetoric from people is incredibly nieve and comes from sheltered city people. Guns are a tool and they have their place. Ones designed for killing people do not belong.

You have adopted the word communist into your username, yet you are against arming the working class? Are you calling yourself a clown? I’m confused.
All guns are designed to kill people you clown.
As a communist I know we need to disarm the settler class. As long as settlers can own guns they can be deputized. See: Israel
under no pretext…
Mao tells us in On Contradiction that we need to identify the superior contradiction to organize against it. Under settler-colonialism the settler class is bourgeoisified by superexploitation of the colonized. You aren’t going to defeat the settler-occupation by arming the occupiers.
So it is in Israel, so it is in the US. They’re close allies because they’re part of the same project.
