No you don't understand. The pro-gun community would support a solution, it just needs to be instantly and 100% effective without inconveniencing a single gun owner or costing anything.

It's a completely reasonable position and not at all just an excuse to do nothing.

Maybe the answer is that every single human being should own a gun and carry it every single place they go 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.

Where do I put it when I'm showering tho?

[-] shortwavesurfer@monero.town 1 points 1 year ago

on the sink right next to the shower would be my guess.

You could do what that one guy did and put one in a piece of Tupperware mounted to the shower wall.

What if my dog gets it? I need a waterproof holster. Or a condom.

Isn't it just fascinating how all the solutions proposed by gun owners and Republican politicians just happen to coincide with what's most profitable for the gun lobby?

But I'm sure people who manufacture guns are much more moral than the tobacco industry, oil industry, sugar industry, asbestos industry and all those other groups that got caught putting profits before people's lives.
