where guns are more available, more people die from them (all things considered). it overrides any concept of knowing you might also get shot. places like Chicago get their guns from Indiana and Wisconsin. Hawaii has strict laws and they work. the problem in the US is that most state borders are easy to cross and too many have bought the gun/freedom propaganda to do what's necessary federally.
Your initial reply is still illogical at best and preposterous at worst.

I know you believe in these myths but for the rest of us, they are parables. The meme here is clearly applying it to guns. We would not limit access to water but we would limit access to chemical weapons. Or slingshots vs missiles. So the question is where do things like guns or cars fit on the spectrum. We should no more decide access today based on the understanding of weapons of the ancients or our founders.
My criticism is of your logic here, and whether or not you feel the need to mock my religion doesn’t affect the validity of my response.
Cain would have used something else to kill Abel if he didn’t have a rock, like a club. Your reply makes sense if Abel also had a rock, or if Cain used a rock to kill like 15 people at once somehow, but that’s not what happened in the story.
There’s a reason why gun control advocates primarily use mass shootings as examples of why gun control is needed, and not things like assassination attempts or suicides.
Oh no

so access to guns should be strongly regulated, to ensure they don't fall into the wrong hand. at least as much as cars. when the 2A was passed, it only applied to the federal government (now it applies to all governments). but back then there were local and state gun control laws.
What? This is like saying Cain killed Abel because he had a rock lol
Maintaining #EPG data seems exhausting
Does #Damus have a lot of local storage? Not sure why it would take up so much space
This is over the line bruh.
I’m unfollowing you again.
I don’t care if we are aligned on social issues, saying people you disagree with should be killed is gross at best. It’s how we get groups like #Hamas or #Antifa.
Restarting my computer gave me 35 GB of free space 👀
The creation of the state of #Israel was part of efforts by the #UN to repartition land and redefine state lines among the victors after #WWII, a continuation/reboot of some failed plans first drawn up after #WWI
If only #Nazi #Germany won #WWII, then #Palestine would be free. ❤️
I feel like you can easily tell who’s new to the #Israel vs. #Palestine conflict by waiting for them to say “they should stop shooting and just negotiate peacefully”
Just heard a segment on #MSNBC where they interviewed someone connected to the #IDF. They asked him about the border between #Palestine and #Egypt and when it will be opened, and he said that it’s closed on the Palestinian end, and #Hamas is the one keeping it closed so that citizens can’t escape.
Interesting, as all the rhetoric I’d seen before said that it was #Egypt, not #Hamas, that was keep citizens from escaping in that direction. #MSNBC says they will attempt to confirm this claim with their sources.
Holy heck, I’d never root for her to be attacked violently. But yes I agree that she’s cringey and bad.
you are the bullshit media
Huh?
I would argue that the Arab states have never wanted or cared about the Palestinians (but many of their subjects did), and still don’t. It has nothing to do with a “genocidal ideology”

Not sure why one would think that #Israel isn’t letting Palestinians leave #Gaza
#Hamas has barricaded the Palestinians in so that they can’t leave 😫
I think it’d depend on the genetic makeup then. If the village was ethnically homogeneous, then it’d be a genocide, otherwise not.
Massacre? Slaughter? Victory?
Aren’t genocides usually ethnocentric?
