OMFG.. Is Donald Duck Trump REALLY this FUCKING STUPID?!
Like the internet and social media are the cause of the shootings.. DUMBASS it's the FUCKING GUN LAW..
WAKE UP SUCKER!
🇳🇱
@snder Both statements are wrong. it isn't gun law nor is it social media. There is more then enough evidence to debunk either of these claims.
@freemo If there aren't any guns to start with this shit wouldn't have happened or at least not as frequent..
It's not normal to walk around with a gun to feel safe.. It's ridiculous, how can you feel safe when you're neighbour can gun you down for walking on their property.. I really can't wrap my head around it
@snder What wouldnt have happened? People have been murdering each other en masse for many thousands of years before guns were even evented.
@freemo Very true but it far too easy over there. I think most people can't handle such power.
If you want to get a gun here it's very hard for a reason, they are illegal!
@snder I own an AR-15 at my american home. So I obviously have made my decision on the issue already. But only after a great deal of research and soul searching ont he topic.
@freemo Have you had any training in how to use it safely?
And where do you use it for? Don't get me wrong I like BB guns but with the thought they are pracrly harmless
@snder I took some basic gun safety courses and read up on it. It wasnt mandatory though. but most shops that sell it to you even though it isnt required make it a point to walk you through all the safety concerns if its your first gun. Not as good as a roper course, but it does help.
I use it mostly for sport, sharp shooting and the like. If i ever would need it I would use it for self defense but I dont particularly feel like I need a gun for that that 99% of the time.
@snder I'm not saying the checks should be more strict. In fact im against stricter checks in terms of background checks. The idea of licensing would be such that ANYONE capable of passing the course would be allowed a license and under no circumstances should someone be denied it if they take the course and pass.
@freemo Yeah that's what I meant! Some sorts of training in how to use it safely and when not to use for example!
@snder YeaI agree that would be a huge leap forward for sure. As long as any licensing is not reverse searchable I see no reason to be against it.
I could think of one exception where it may cause an issue. A woman who is a rape risk due to an ex abusive or otherwise. She may be in immediate danger and may not have the time to get licensed first. Sadly we dont have a police force that we could rely on to actually stay at the womans house with her so what other option would there be?
@snder I love the netherlands and its people. But there are american ideals I also agree with. PErsonally I'd love a country that was a hybrid of the two. but that doesnt exist
@freemo Hmm.. That's hard for me since I'm not an american (yet!)
@freemo Thanks ;-) But I see your point and it's indeed a very complicated situation!
It's just very hard to see so many reports on deaths by guns and stuff 😢 To be honest I've never even held a gun in my hands..
Btw, I totally agree on the point that the checks should be a lot more strict!
