The god of Liberty is a hungry god. Child Sacrifice Uvalde edition. [UNLV Update]

Guess what? Not everyone agrees thay gender is a social construct or that a girl can have a penis, and those people have rights, too. There is no right to shove your opinions at a CAPTIVE audience who is forbidden to express dissent just because you call yourself a teacher.

Open a history book where baby boys had dresses.
Look at other cultures.
It's easy to show.
You pretty much have to be on the level of a flat-Earther to deny it these days.

So all you have to do is classify any effort that doesn't involve jackboots kicking in your door and grabbing your guns as "symbolic" and you have a perfect excuse for dismissing it. Anything that might actually work would involve government action and since we know government can't do anything right, you have another perfect excuse for dismissing. Of course anything the government might do would require tax money (and we all know taxation is theft) well there's the final reason to dismiss anything that might be done. Perfect.

Fucking stop letting Uncle Albert make this thread about him and his imagined oppression. What the actual fuck you guys?

This thread is actually a great microcosm of the "debate" going on in America right now.

Well, Paladin just waded in, happy now?

UA represents the feelings of quite a lot of people who live lives of barely (if that) coherent rage against...whatever. People with his worldview have an inordinate amount of influence over the course of the debate over gun control (or the lack thereof) so ...

Effective measures focus on the bad actors, to the exclusion of all else, and I would sooner have that tax money spent keeping violent people locked up forever and installing metal detectors in schools than I would have it sent to fucking Ukraine.

Of course they did.

If that story is true (details are still emerging), every single law enforcement officer who responded to that call for service and didn't enter the school should be fired and forced to pay restitution to the victims' families.

Any minute now, you armchair Dirty Harrys will sign up for the nearest police force and show them what "real" courage and professionalism look like.

Any minute now.

Oh, I will stand up for those who can't do so themselves, make no mistake. But, I will not join nor approve the existence of, a group who's sole purpose is to harass individuals.

Herschel Walker and his Fanook son, both need to shut the fuck up.

Says the guy who'll never put his money where his mouth is, and live in the tax-free paradise of the Colorado forest.

So, what I'm hearing is, you lahve heem and want to keess him.

Hey Americans, this is how you respond to someone walking around with a firearm:

You don't fucking celebrate as some sort of misguided symbol of freedom, for chrissakes.

This country is a dump, full of armed psychopaths.

Come on now, you know their sole purpose is to raise money through fines.

Exactly. Now explain why I would willingly disarm in such an environment.

Colorado is becoming a shithole of migration from the coasts. But I guess that will be the fate of all interior states.

Compromise. The government that set it up, set it up for the sole purpose to raise money through fines. The cops who sign up, sign up for the sole purpose of harassing individuals.

Never!
