>I think people shouldn’t have automatic, military grade guns.
Congratulations, that’s already a law for the most part. Automatic firearms are INCREDIBLY expensive due to heavy taxation, require a specific license, and any automatic firearm made after 1986 cannot legally be sold to civilians in America. On top of all that, even PRIOR to the ban in ‘86, legally owned automatic weaponry has only been recorded in potentially 3 crimes, all of which were murky.
> I own a gun myself and understand the need for them
> However no civilian needs automatic guns
> I just want shootings to stop being so frequent.
They’re not frequent, and in fact have consistently slowed. On top of this, over 90% of all active shooter scenarios are prevented by civilians legally carrying. In fact, if you take the broad definition of “mass shooting”, which involves any 3 people being injured during a “gun related incident”, those cases are overwhelmingly fall into a couple categories: accidental (meaning any hypothetical ban wouldn’t actually stop that), gang-related (meaning illegal firearms), or exaggerated (any injury can be counted, even if it isn’t from the gun itself).
> I would like to not fear for my life in public because I look gay and trans and someone would really like to shoot me
Your fear is irrational, your life is not in danger for any of that dumbass shit you mentioned.
> You’re accusing me of racism because I said Jared padalecki got a bad tattoo. How sad
I’m accusing you of racism because you’re more concerned about your irrationality that you’ll back policies that have always been steeped in racism.
You’re not a good person, you’re an ignorant child that doesn’t know what they’re talking about in the slightest.
The policies you support enable criminals and empowers police to act against the innocent. The fact you outed your support over such things because of a tattoo is irrelevant.
