How can you put the genie back in the bottle?

There are hundreds of millions of guns. If you laid them end to end they would circle the planet.

Its already too late, but the responsible thing to do would be to try.

That is an outrage, I know.

I agree, on everything, but Dems will vehemently disagree on my method of trying

There are too many guns floating around, gov’t buyback programs are expensive. Most gun murders (or at least many) are committed by career criminal felons who are not legally allowed to own guns in the first place

In high gun violence areas, bring back stop and frisk. Get the guns out of the hands of the felons, and put them in prison for violating the gun laws regarding possessing a firearm

Too racist, too many legal issues. Ok second best is buy back programs to get them out of responsible people’s hands, which does reduce the total number of guns so not worthless, just expensive and nearly worthless

There’s no way, they’d have to choose to do it themselves like The Daily Wire does (they refuse to name mass shooters but still discuss them, so they’re 50% there but better than everywhere else)

It would have to be universally accepted as good practice. There would be no ethical way to enforce it that wouldn’t infringe on free speech. So will it happen?

Nope

To summarize: since we can't regulate the media, a bunch of kids have to continue to die until someone comes up with a more clever solution.

More or less? I know that's not what you are saying you want, but it's what we're stuck with... right?

Yeah if the state took over news media that would be pretty bad.

I won't, no. Even if the facts say it is. Don't go gently into the night or whatever that famous poem says.

Now look at abortion rights in the exact same light.

You're aren't willing to support regulation of corporations which you admit are helping kill shitloads of innocent people.

But you are willing to support regulation of the bodies of half of Americans, private citizens, because they are helping kill innocent people.

Is the killing so direct in the first instance?

No, it isn't

"Regulation of the bodies of americans" lol. Abortion euphemisms never get old..

You know what "regulating a body" would actually be? Cutting it into pieces and throwing it in the garbage. That's some pretty heavy regulation of human bodies if you ask me.

In Basanos' world, until no human beings die for any reason whatsoever, we have to keep killing babies on purpose and throwing them in the garbage can.

Care to actually address the blatant discrepancy?
