Change.org - Petition To Hire 1,000,000 People To Put Their Fingers In The Shoot Hole Of Peoples’ Guns So They Can’t Shoot Them

[mycatisnamedfrank]

It’s still gonna shoot… And they’re gonna lose a finger

[bidoof]

No. The finger blocks the bullet. We can do this

[domozillla-deactivated20181216]

This is a gun we’re talking about. The projectile is fired using an explosion, not by compressed air of a toy gun or the elastic forces of a sling shot. People would be lucky if they only lost their finger.

[bidoof]

The finger blocks it

[dildomuncher3000]

The finger won’t block it - the shaft is only there for keeping the bullet straight, all the propulsion happens behind the bullet. The bullet would rip through the finger, not that many would actually fit without the victim being a child, and beyond.

[bidoof]

The bullet would go forward a little and then hit the finger and stop it’s not that hard to understand

[fifty-percent-possessed-deactiv]

People are going to lose their hands. Go watch Mythbusters. They did an episode on this, the hand fucking exploded.

[hungwy]

No, the bullet would start to go but stop at the finger. Thats basic physics. Also hands dont explode normally they did something wrong.

[blipblerp]

Why the dingleknockers would you even consider sticking your finger in the barrel of a loaded gun?? the amount of force propelling the bullet at that close of range would shatter the finger at the very least; this is a petition for 1,000,000 people to loose the use of their hands. If a bullet explodes the back of a persons skull when they shoot it in their mouth it sure as hell will explode a finger.

[gorps]

No the finger would stop it

[joryboi]

I’m loving the idiocy of this post.

Ppl with brains: ummm finger go boom…

Others: no bullet stop. U no kno fisics >:V

[foulserpent]

no the finger would stop it

[indianworiorprincess-blog]

You guy who think the bullet would stop at the finger have never shot a gun and can volunteer to it their fingers in the barrel of my 9 mil and I’ll I’ll the trigger and see if it will stop the bullet. Dumdasses

[foulserpent]

the finger would stop it

[meatswitch-deactivated20231107]

[mackthetrainer]

Since when was this a gender thing? 1,000,000 people are gonna lose their hand because people are taking such extreme was to show guns are bad when he can already see that. This is why I can’t stand shit like this sometimes.

[systlin]

No, silly, see, the bullet would stop because the finger would be in the way

[galaxy-bath-bomb]

Is this what they think will happen if the petition gets enough signatures?

[dresupi]

no, the finger will stop the bullet

[iliveinprocrasti-nation]

The bullet will rip straight through a finger and maybe more of the person’s body…. how hard is it to understand this

[systlin]

No, this is very simple, the bullet will get to the finger and then stop. 

[wodneswynn-deactivated-deactiva]

I really don’t understand what you people aren’t getting about this. The bullet will travel down the barrel a little ways but then the finger stops it. Easy.

[lord0fries]

Reasons why this is bullshit:

1. Ur finger can be broken tf off w/ the force it takes to bite off a carrot stick. A bullet would do far worse damage.

2. Would it even fit?

3. You’d likely get gunned the fuck down before you even got the chance. Take a seat, dumbass.

Reblog this, you guys. I’m sick of this shit going around.

[johnnyjoestarrelatable]

the finger would stop it though

[rynnay]

DO NOT TRY THIS I BEG OF YOU. PUTTING A FINGER IN THE BARREL WILL NOT ONLY STOP THE BULLET BUT THE GUN WILL ALSO EXPLODE BACK ON THE PERSON HOLDING IT. This isn’t just dangerous, it’s also very humiliating!! 

[sashibunbun]

I wonder how many people after meatswitch are now just fucking around.

[rainbowloliofjustice]

Probably most people but this is also the same website that doesn’t fact check anything and there was a popular post going around if you combined two household chemicals you could get a stronger cleaning product/solution when in reality it made mustard gas

[daydreaming-starlight-deactivat]

Am……. am I the only one here with a love of firearms that understands that all the “it’ll stop” people are just having a bunch of shits and giggles? Literally being clowns? Saying it on purpose because some of y'all genuinely think they’re THAT stupid and want to have a laugh at your expense? Being completely facetious?

Some of you people really need to figure out what the fuck sarcasm is holy shit…

That being said the person a few reblogs above me is absolutely right do NOT do this because the gun will explode :( you’ll hurt the shooter’s hand!

[rainbowloliofjustice]

To be fair, the Darwin Awards are a thing. 

Some people truly are too dumb to live and a lot of people have a surprising lack of self-preservation

[loki-against-onision-deactivate]

No the finger would stop it

[thathighclassbitch]

Idk what yall are on about- the finger would really stop it so???? No harm done

[insomniac-gamzee]

Finger stops bullet. I still have hands.

[atlas-n-eris]

I hate arguments, but for the ever loving name of science, *no*

👏👏THE 👏👏FINGER 👏👏DOES NOT 👏👏STOP 👏👏THE 👏👏BULLET👏👏

I understand many of you are here for the shits and giggles, and I would be too if there weren’t impressionable idiots who might *actually* do this! It kinda sucks, like the area 51 meme, it’s fucking awesome, and I love it! But we all know, unless someone clarifies that ‘no, we’re not actually doing this, that would be suicide’ someone will actually do it!!! This could be hurting people!!! Please at least clarify, from the side of the ‘no it will stop the bullet’ that it will *not*! Hnnnngggg okay rant over now tank u

It’s 2019, and I am officially done with stodgy anti-phone thinkpieces.

From now on, the only criticisms of smart phones that I accept will be:

1) Manufacture that is incredibly taxing on the environment and relies on exploited labor

2) Planned obsolescence

3) Super creepy apps and functions that invade a person’s privacy without their consent

4) Smartphones being used to enable employers, family, and friends to demand a person’s engagement and availability at every hour of the day or night

I’m moving toward my goals on patreon. When I reach 300$ a month, I’ll start posting longer comics on Saturdays. If I reach 700$ a month, I can keep posting daily for the foreseeable future *and* expand the project. I could add tie-in projects like positive astrology, positive photography, and longer series that focus on specific topics like studying, writing, healing, etc. If these are things that interest you, you can pledge for just 1$ here.

So i saw a post a few days ago about neurotypicals who say that stim/fidget toys make you *less* focused and how fucked that is and it got me thinking of an analogy.

So you know when you try on a friend’s glasses and you can’t see shit???? Their glasses make your vision worse, right? But you realize that it’s because YOU DON’T NEED THEM. You might mention or make a joke about how blurry things are for you, but you still understand and appreciate that the glasses help your friend see, even though they aren’t good for you personally.

So when you try your friend’s tangle or fidget cube and claim, as a blanket statement, that it makes you *less* focused and that your friend should stop using it for that reason?? You’re being just as much of an asshole as if you tried on your friend’s glasses and said “wow, you know these ACTUALLY make your vision WORSE, right???” because you’re assuming that your experience is the same as theirs when it’s really, really not.

[sylveon-rosepetal-deactivated20]

I’m wanna show this post to my stepdad bc he thinks my stims are just toys and he has actually called me stupid for using them as coping mechanisms

This is literally the best analogy that I’ve ever seen about this

Sometimes I forget how big Navi is now 😍

[rubyvroom]

Can I watch a great film knowing the actresses in it were terrorized and mistreated the entire time? Can I watch a football game knowing that the players are getting brain injuries right before my eyes? Can I listen to my favorite albums anymore knowing that the singers were all beating their wives in between studio sessions? Can I eat at the new fancy taco place knowing when the building that used to be there got bulldozed eight families got kicked out of their homes so they could be replaced with condos and a chain restaurant? Can I wear the affordable clothes I bought downtown that were probably assembled in a sweatshop with child labor? Can I eat quinoa? Can I eat this burger? Can I drink this bottled water? Can I buy a car and drive to work because I’m sick of taking an hour each way on the subway? Whose bones do I stand on? Whose bones am I standing on right now?

On one hand, it’s a privilege to be able to choose to acknowledge these horrors or not–we’re going to acknowledge that privilege. On the other hand, I once attended a lecture by the explorerer-conservationist Jacques-Yves Cousteau’s daughter and son and they had a lot of opinions about what we could do to help the environment and the ocean and I talked about how in my country, we have to drink bottled water, because it’s a desert and there’s only salt water all around, but we’re contributing to pollution and all of these things…

And she looked at me and told me not to fall into the trap of “activist guilt.” I couldn’t remember the exact words, but, it was the first time I’d heard the term and it took a weight off my shoulders.

We do what we can. It’s so much better than giving up entirely or not doing anything at all because we can’t do it perfectly. It doesn’t benefit anyone in the end if we just sit around feeling guilty about every little thing in life. I’d just joined tumblr back then (haha, so like, eight or nine years ago at this point?), I was being exposed to way more than I’d ever been before (I was previously just into feminism and animal rights/wildlife conservation/environmentalism since I was a kid), and it was weighing on me.

As long as humans are humans and living flawed lives, many consumed by greed, there will not be anything in this world untouched by evil.

I usually avoid stuff that says it was made in China or other cheap looking knockoffs, out of fear of them being made in sweatshops (now, I know even a lot of big brands use those…), it’s exhausting. Then, I read something about how people who actually lived and worked in those would still buy this cheap stuff and how this shocked the foreigner reporting on it, but they just looked confused like, it’s what they can afford and them avoiding consuming it isn’t going to change the whole system from the ground-up.

… it went on about how “money talks” and choosing where to put your money still feeds the whole capitalist system and is nearly a way of comforting yourself, but you not buying doesn’t mean everyone else isn’t. What needs to be tackled is at a much higher level than any of us can reach.

Of course, I’d still, given the choice, give my money to companies I agree with and I’ll boycott what I know to support awful stuff, but I also feel no superiority over this and know now it’s not as black and white or easy as I thought it was.

This is the same reason that moral purity “you can’t enjoy [x] because it’s Problematic ™” is such nonsense, because nothing is pure. There’s something bad about everything if you dig deep enough. As long as we lived in flawed human societies we’ve got to make the best of what they offer us. If you have the choice and means, please, do support those who do good, but also, don’t beat yourself up over not living up to an unattainable ideal.

No one can. You’ll just make yourself so miserable, you either burn up and stop fighting entirely or you’ll make yourself a non-productive, depressed heap just out of a bleeding heart left unchecked. You can’t make a change to this world if you refuse to engage in it.

Have a related article with self-care tips for activists.

[fuocogo]

Did everyone just…. forget how to create, all of a sudden? Disney pumping out the fourth remake in a row? Movies are like 70% sequels? Stories in games being just bad if they exist at all? Haven’t had a book get hyped in like half a decade? Are we okay? What’s going on?

[katika-vs]

I have a feeling this is because it’s not as inherently risky. Sequels/prequels/reboots have a premade audience who already enjoyed the first film and are looking for more, while original content has to work to gain such an audience.
