  • Sen. Warner: ‘Trump intends to interfere in this year’s elections … This was the opening shot’

  • Guess I’ll support these idiots because we live under an 18th century government created by people who didn’t understand math very well.

    Well, voting third party is throwing you vote away under the system we live in right now. So, it really is a vote between the disconnected and the party that claims to be domestic terrorists and finds these people to be very fine:

  • They’re already violating the law making these mods dude.

    Right. I'm sure the illegality of making these mods would be a turnoff to mass shooters. My point is that, to reduce the casualty count, the medium of illegality ought to be reduced. Where an AR15 can kill 60 and wound 400+ at a long distance, maybe a reasonable limitation on accessing machine guns such that the only accessible guns are single-shot long-rifles or pistols might have had that number reduced to 10 dead and 60 wounded.

  • That's probably the intended purpose: make the what was once an impartial investigation into a red state v blue state wiffle ball.

  • Yes, there are “handguns” which could achieve this speaking broadly in terms of ballistics.

    Well, there are Uzis

    Point being a stock meant/intended to be shouldered is the only legal distinction between a pistol and a rifle in the US.

    Maybe, but that extra length ensures a higher level of accuracy at a distance. Compare a stock rifle without a scope's accuracy at a thousand yards to a stock handgun at a thousand yards. Both might be inaccurate at that range, but the scope of the inaccuracy would differ greatly. That "shouldering" the rifle adds stability.

  • Weird to have him tried twice for the same offense, but then a lot of things in the US law system are weird to me.

    2 different soverigns - 2 different cases

    But the evidence from his backpack does seem overwhealming.

    The stuff from the backpack was suppressed since the police didn't have a warrant

  • I believe your representatives could do something if people started voting in their best interest.

    Both parties are bought and paid for by the same plutocrats.

    A basic social safety net in a first world country should be the standard

    The United States is a third world shithole that mascarades as first world (see bribes as previously mentioned).

    The general populous in the US is too conservative and resistant to change.

    Mandami shows that to be untrue. The Epstein class has merely kept the political system from ensuring the wellbeing of the population (see bribes above).

    Even if I had cancer and UHC denied to give me healthcare treatment killing the CEO wouldn’t immediately resolve my issues with denials.

    Maybe. Maybe it'll change the calculation to make it too expensive to deny people care/living wages (See Paper Mario).

    The policies applied are horrible but that doesn’t justify murder.

  • Yes but only if the threat is urgent

    The ongoing and systematic denial of life-saving and necessary care to people in favor of profit, especially since those who are contracted to provide care just politically donate bribe their way into setting things up so care is denied isn't urgent? Seems like fighting the systematic early-extermination of workers has some similarities to the resistance networks that fought the Nazis. Not a 1:1 overlap, but there seem to be similarities.

  • Banning the means of crime =/= banning the potential crime. In fact, once the Tommy Gun was outlawed, though it took a minute, eventually the Tommy Gun stopped being used. Not sure how banning the means of mass murder equates to repair. Also, the right to repair has been affirmed in many jurisdictions.
