Lawmakers in 2022 banned the sale of ammo magazines holding more than 10 bullets in an effort to thwart deadly mass shootings. However, a gun store in Kelso continued to sell the clips and drew a fine from the Washington State Attorney General in July 2023.
I don’t get the hate for large magazine capacity. If someone can bring one 30-rounder, they can bring three 10-rounders. That certainly wouldn’t have changed what happened at Uvalde.
I know that’s anecdotal, but unless people bum-rush the shooter during a mag change, it will never make a difference
It’s all performative. Problems with guns don’t stem from the fact that guns exist and people have access to them, it’s that people treat guns as a catch-all solution. As though guns are some magic wand you can use to solve all your problems. And as a wedge between those who are “In” and those who are “Out”.
If you want to “fix” guns in this country, you have to start grounding the following behind them. Require that people learn about them and how to use them safely. Demystify them and make them the tool they are in peoples minds, instead of some deific relic sent by god to fix all our problems.
Never does the gun control movement say ‘this restriction was ineffective, we should remove it’.
The primary goal is to make exercising your rights as annoying and cumbersome as possible. Death by 1,000 cuts.
Yeah. Id have so much more respect for the movement if they did.
Silencers for example is a known bad law. Revoke it, and patch some other loophole instead. Like how private sales don’t require background checks or literally anything.
