Yesterday I came across a 'meme' about the second amendment in the US and it sticked with me..
The second amendment (gun BS law) was created with the Musket in mind that could fire ~max 2 rounds per minute.
These days many (US Fanboys ) don't have Muskets anymore but AR15's for example. This stupid weapon fires 400 rounds per minute ⚠️ What the actually fucking fuck is what I ask..
For hunting deer? "Protecting" yourself? From what? Aliens?
This shit is one of the things keeping me from moving there. Why would I want ppl around me who think guns are okay and cool..
I call it a sickness.
Fuck guns!
And yes, I know. It's super easy bitching from across the ocean.
But the thing is.. The US acts like it's "leading the world" and the West with all but to be honest, from our side of view it looks a bit like a wild west shit hole...
How an we accept leadership from ppl who can't even get their own shit on order wow.. I know it's rooted deep but what is needed that things finally change?
It seems most people don't want it but still put up with, wth.. At some point one's gotta say it's enough.. 😠
I mean, I can "forget" it all and act like it's not there but I want a safe place for my American friends ❤️ I care a lot about you..
@stux well, speak for yourself. This notion that we Europeans are somehow morally superior to Americans is trully bizarre and frankly I've never seen americans having such strong opinion about european laws that don't affect them in any way, so I think it is arrogant that we tell them how to live their lifes. The gun ownership correlation with violent crime got debunked so many times it's already straight up boring to just talk about it.
