You’d try your damnedest to save me how lol, asking politely?

You will die on it. And I’m not risking my life to save you.
Genuinely curious how you’re surprised by this
Where have I heard that math before lmao
Lol Biden won the state by 1.2 points in 2020 so automatically losing a whole point of people who view Palestine as their most important issue probably is good, right? And you’ve got fetterman out actively telling the base to fuck off.
Hey look I don’t care, good luck to you people lol
Doubt he’ll win Pennsylvania, he’s got that whole settlerman problem there.
Um. They absolutely did but not what you wish they did.
Well they're fascist, I'm not sure why you expect them to be consistent or logical
I'm not downplaying the deaths of 10,000 people or that 30,000 have been injured. There are over a million displaced and over 2 million Palestinians live in Gaza, more in the West Bank and more in the surrounding countries.
Israel cannot win this. It is impossible to accomplish their genocide. That's after weeks of bombing spending who knows how much on munitions. Logistically it's impossible.
I'm so desperate for any one in power to do something, I'll take this anyway
I get your trying to help but you're missing the point
This is from 2002 and the source is the Israeli army. I'm exhausted of you assholes.
I keep seeing this question and I'm in disbelief anyone is actually parroting this in good faith.
Not genocide? Can they not do genocide? There are a million different options to combat terrorism but right wing governments only know how to send in shock troops into civilian populations. Just because these assholes are assholes doesn't mean this is the only option.
If there were to be an actual ban on firearms that starts with the police, I would support it.
Republicans passed the mulford act in California.
I don't think you read my comment. I didn't mention mental illness. And I explained how access to firearms will not be restricted to those who commit the violence.
I would prefer to live in a country with no guns but that is not the reality we live in. And it will not be the reality no matter how many laws get pressed. They will be selectively enforced by a fascist police force.
In Colorado, there is a magazine capacity limit of 15 rounds. The police choose not to enforce this. You can walk into any gun store and buy a drum magazine holding 150 rounds. In a metropolitan area with probably the most horrific mass shootings. The only time it will ever be a crime is when the police murder a brown person with a magazine holding more than 15 rounds.
I understand you want to live in a safe community and don't want to read news about mass shooters every week. I think you should accept this and act accordingly, don't bring a knife to a gun fight. The people who hold power do not care and laws they would implement would not stop the violence and would disenfranchise vulnerable communities.
On the contrary. I believe the tools of violence are the only things that will allow us to protect lives.
Gun control has historically been used as a tool to oppress further those who resist oppression. You can see it today, every murder by the police is defended with "they reached for my gun" or "they had a gun". The gun control laws you want will be enforced by the police and they will be enforced selectively against minorities. The atrocities you reference are almost universally committed by right wing straight white men. I can assure you no gun control will stop them from acquiring firearms.
There is an explicit example of this in Israel today. The settlers are allowed and encouraged to possess firearms while the Palestinians are explicitly disallowed.
It's ahistoric to say that gun control will save lives. This country only implemented gun control when indigenous and black people began carrying firearms in self defense. Many black men concealed carried pistols to defend against lynchings which is how we have concealed carry restrictions. Because it became illegal to conceal carry, the lynchings continued. Atrocities continue.
I am against gun control laws and this blood is not on my hands.
Blowback is the most incredible podcast I've listened to. If you like behind the bastards, blowback is better, entire seasons on particular historical events.
Biden ran on a platform of working with the fascists I don’t know why you’re surprised he’s good with them in power.
