ATF Logic:

Rich gun owners = "Law abiding citizens", poor gun owners = "Terrorists"

Statesian here. There are a CRAPTON of mass shootings here. If we do nothing about guns, the shootings will still happen. What is the leftist answer for reducing mass shootings without disarming the proletariat?

A Christian nationalist group that protests drag shows in North Texas is suing another group that aims to defend the performances, after an altercation outside a Fort Worth brewery this spring.

The New Columbia Movement, a group that advocates for the U.S. to be ruled by “Christian morality,” often protests drag shows around North Texas, according to news reports. On the other side is the Elm Fork John Brown Gun Club, a left-wing group that provides armed security at drag shows, wearing black masks, tactical gear and pride flags.

As you know, most channels of that type are plagued with reactionary and nato propagandists, i want to know a little more about the subject without need to hear western chauvinism all the damn time

One idea I have is completely overhauling how we approach crime like giving criminals a reason to take the way out of crime.

Hey comrades, I just want to make sure we're all aware of some basic opsec when it comes to leftist firearms. Whenever you take a picture on your phone or on a camera, Metadata is stored in the file. This metadata can include a lot of information like what phone you're using or the location it was taken. We all care about this for obvious reasons so it's very important that we're making sure to wipe the metadata and any identifiable landmarks or information on images we plan to post here.

Take a moment to learn how to wipe and read metadata on images, you can find information online of how to do this. I personally just use an app on my phone to do it.

Have to look good for the range

If I want a pistol, I want it to be a Luger; or at the very least, look/operate like one. So much cool looking than your typical glocks. But alas. 😔

The one time I'm proud to be Pinoy

The rest of the comments are surprisingly chill and nuanced.

PLASTIC DEFENCE is a documentary about illegal 3D printed firearms in Europe and the decentralised network behind them. These guns are robust, they don't blow up in your hands, and they're untraceable. What's more, they're being made in people's bedrooms.

My general impression is that guns are pretty hard to get, which makes it very safe, but also a disarmed populace can be bad. Is it hypocritical to oppose the disarmament of one population, but not another?

Full text is this:

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

This says it all. You only get guns to protect the state, not your own liberty (shove this to anKKKraps).

This is why I find it so embarassing as a gun nut to see right wing "pro-gun community" (read: guns for me but not for thee) say 2nd Amendment = gun rights.

No, it's a concession given to you by the bourgeoisie and can be revoked at anytime they please - looking at you, KKKa-liberal fascist-fornia. This is why I no longer identify as pro-Second Amendment despite being extremely pro gun.

People commonly quote Marx communicating that the possession of firearms must not be infringed, but I'd like more general principles and justifications than an appeal to Marx.

I've done some reading but when I cannot I just think about things on my own, maybe bounce ideas off a friend.

I would like to hear more from folks though, maybe just wise words on operation, maybe some sources to check out in my free time. Anything to better build my understanding is welcome.
