    Gun Political Issues Megathread. (Control for or Against?)

    More hoping to get it all through "in case" they lose power. Unlikely they expect to, but some contingency planning would not be out of character in the slightest.

    Gun Political Issues Megathread. (Control for or Against?)

    I'd say the problem with it is actually the opposite, because CNC machines just aren't specialized that way to nearly ever be able to confirm in court that the machine's sole or primary function is firearms manufacturing. Because it's a CNC machine. The entire point is fine detail programmable...

    Gun Political Issues Megathread. (Control for or Against?)

    Only the wording establishes it as prior convictions of misdemeanor domestic violence automatically being increased to felony, if it's just a change to the sentencing standards for future cases then it doesn't trip the 5th at all.

    Gun Political Issues Megathread. (Control for or Against?)

    Okay, then bring up the overall suicide rate because people in Europe are still trying. Murder vs. murder, suicide vs. suicide, these have fundamentally different underlying causes to look at before going after means. And if we are looking at means, how about we ban cigarettes and alcohol...

    Gun Political Issues Megathread. (Control for or Against?)

    First, compare gun murders because "gun deaths" include the suicides that aren't going away without quite specifically punishing law-abiding citizens for society being fucked, then see what happens to the number when you take out the 14% demographic responsible for the plurality. "Gun deaths"...
