I wonder... all those who hate Walmart now due that no gun thing...

@bijouxbroussard solution? To what people who murder?

@kingkyri many have and many will to pander, but that's not a solution to keep anyone from murdering anyone. IF SOMEONE IS GOING TO SHOOT A PLACE UP, THEY PROBABLY WILL ALSO IGNORE THE "NO GUNS" SIGN.

@Notanymore I was referring to their announcement that they’ll stop selling ammunition (they’ve already stopped selling guns in several states). I [b]did[/b] say it was largely symbolic.

@Notanymore So what do [b]you[/b] suggest ?

@bijouxbroussard understood.....but they're ceasing to sell pistol and short Barrel rifle ammo.

@bijouxbroussard I suggest a change in culture....no more team politics....destroy the media that tears us apart. And I'd personally recommend a way to protect yourself individually, because the cops won't and the bad guys will never give up their guns

@Notanymore So you’re among those who think everyone should be armed ? Like the OK Corral ? The culture’s not changing, if anything it’s getting worse because we currently have a leader who thrives on the division. Us vs. Them. I could see another civil war coming down the road, with less clearer delineations than states.

@bijouxbroussard The only thing that can't possibly be regulated are guns, remember?

Uteruses? We can regulate the shit out of them.
Theocrats feeling sad because people mock them? We can regulate that, too!
Car? You betcha!

No guns, though. They're magical.

@bijouxbroussard everyone thrives on that division....look around this site. Look on TV....look at Hilary, Bernie, anybody....that division is so ingrained in us it's pathetic.

And I think anyone able bodied and mentally well enough has an ingrained responsibility to protect themselves and those around them.


Have you ever considered carrying a firearm for saftey? Have you ever shot a gun?

@daisymay Yes, it pretty funny when you think about. Conservatives want “smaller” government—small enough to fit in a woman’s uterus.

@daisymay guns are very regulated now.

@Notanymore [quote]guns are very regulated now[/quote]

Bullshit.

@daisymay really? Can you go buy a silencer and take it home today?

@daisymay how about a shotgun with a 7 inch barrel?

@Notanymore Is a silencer a firearm?

No.

But, to answer your question, I absolutely can do that.

@daisymay how about an Uzi?

@Notanymore Yep.

@daisymay 200 dollar tax stamp.... federal background check and paperwork....local law enforcement sign off and six months of waiting. That's regulation

@Notanymore [quote]200 dollar tax stamp.... federal background check and paperwork....local law enforcement sign off and six months of waiting. That's regulation[/quote]

All easily bypassed. Regulations with no teeth aren't really regulating anything. 🤷‍♀️

@daisymay how do you bypass that pray tell?

@Notanymore It's as if you've never heard of a gun show. Weird.

@Notanymore I’ve shot a gun. My family members own guns, and have for generations. And yes, they’re [b]liberals[/b], which doesn’t fit the popular rhetoric. I don’t. Some people don’t need to be armed, and unlike many, I accept that. There have been times in my life when if I’d owned a gun it would’ve been too easy to turn it on myself. That’s fact.

@daisymay was at one this weekend. Can you buy an Uzi a silencer or a short barreled shotgun at a gun show?

@Notanymore Well, that would depend on who is in the parking lot, but, technically, yes, you certainly can.
