Didn’t read.

It wouldn’t matter. You could have 20 different metrics to rate a post and people would use all 20 to bury things they didn’t like.

Nah. It’s time for you to learn how to think for yourself rather than having people spoonfeed you information and opinions.

Besides, having you unable to see things right in front of your face makes gun owners look much worse.

Oh honey, it’s been repeatedly answered for you, you’ve just been too slow to pick up on it.

I hope you’re intentionally trying to make me waste my time cause otherwise holy fuck, you sure are unarmed on the internet.

Have you tried shooting them with your poorly secured firearms?

“No but you don’t understand, I’m not driving drunk so how would DUI laws change anything”.

And surprise surprise, he’s slow too.

“I will never drive drunk so what good are DUI laws?”

Because it’s unnecessary.

Damn well wait until you find out how many gun deaths are unnecessary.

Safe storage for firearms is desirable but requiring the prosecution of those who made a good faith effort and failed is not.

Then that prosecution can determine if a good faith effort was made or if the parents were negligent with the storage of their firearms, rather than the usual pro-gun stance of “every solution must be 100% effective (except ours) while never even mildly inconveniencing us and if you try and make it actually happen we’ll kill you”.

Is that correct?

Nope, and you’re probably perfectly aware it isn’t. But I won’t waste my time clarifying in a dead thread so do your pathetic little downvote and I’ll see you next school shooting.

What a plot twist, a pro-gun poster who can’t look beyond themselves and what they want and see the wider problems of gun ownership.

I believe suicide/assisted suicide shouldnt be 100% illegal.

Not what assisted suicide is. People seeking assisted suicide have terminal illnesses and want to die with as much dignity and as little trauma as possible.

“They can just blow their brains out in the bedroom with a cool gun” isn’t a solution, it’s the pro-gun crowd trying to pretend they’re actually deeply compassionate people for advocating dogshit gun laws.

I would have to say that a kid who slits their wrists or overdoses would have to see the same charges there. Someone wanting to kill themselves always has the means.

Not how suicide works. Means reduction has been repeatedly shown to be an effective method of suicide prevention.

But it doesn’t stop there. Only 1 in 10 people who survive a suicide attempt will go on to die by suicide but functionally nobody survives an attempt with a gun.

And of course, what’s currently the suicide method of choice for radicalized teenagers? Grabbing a poorly secured gun and killing as many people with it as you can before the police shoot you in the head or you get bored and blow your brains out.

But I guess if we didn’t supply them with semi-automatic weapons, they’d just go out and do a mass hanging or mass wrist slitting instead.

Why do we need bet our lives on you not lying? Why do we have to tolerate people who leave handguns in cars and secure rifles with threats of domestic violence all so you, a special special snowflake who pinkie promises they’re responsible, don’t have to buy a safe?

Why did you gender that?

Why did it upset you?

A weapon retrieved from a nightstand, or a mothers purse, and used by a small child to kill themselves is a very different situation than a teen who accesses a gun safe without permission.

Both are a failure to prevent a child from accessing a firearm.

Most of them are just neoliberals who are upset there’s still a handful of regulations stopping them from going full psycopath in the name of record profits.

Exhibit A with his gun in a drawer. But it’s okay, we don’t need you to follow it, we just need something to charge you with when you don’t

Works for me. Now you’ll have to get the pro-gun crowd to accept mandatory safe storage laws.

I just thought it was important to note why this kind of thing doesn’t already exist.

There’s things they chose to be that are far worse than “unattractive”.

Does that include all the children who kill themselves with their father’s gun?
