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 :blobderpverified:​) 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!

@stux Funny how many of the most vocal gun critics don't live in the US and have no stake in the issue at all

@genmaicha I wish it where come more from the inside.. :sad_cat:

@stux It doesn't, because most people here are fine with their local gun laws. People in big cities want stricter gun laws, so they have stricter gun laws; likewise, people out in rural areas have more permissive gun laws, because that's what they want. The issue is when decisions are made against the local people's wishes.

Agreed. It is a practical issue large countries have as well. It can take a few minutes for a police response in the open country.
