    trump did have the balls to use executive order in response to a mass shooting…

    Pretty sure he’s always been against guns tho, most rich people are. They’ve fucked over too many people to want someone to be able to kill them that easily.

    Sure, it eventually got overturned, but it worked for almost a decade before the SC struck it down

    Biden tried to do some, but the ones that actually mandated action never went into effect, and the rest was the usual “looking into” bullshit. You can buy a pistol brace right now, and “ghost guns” are still unserialized.

    So (for completely selfish reasons) trump actually has a pretty good track record on gun control for the last 20 some years of American presidents.

    Which almost everyone willing to vote for him would fucking hate if they weren’t too dumb to notice.

    I’m assuming OP didn’t take this screenshot…but if you did…why did you screenshot a reply of a screenshot instead of just saving the screenshot?

    My useless conspiracy theory when additional usernames are included in these, they are the ones taking and spreading it.

    I’m torn. This is a bad look, but when my Mom ran for council we had the list too because we wanted to collect the signs afterwards. They’re most of the cost of a local election campaign.

    We need to restore The Constitution to the full Legal wording that it had prior to WW2. No income taxes on individuals at all, corporations paid the entire bill, inflation was illegal, drugs were explicitly LEGAL. The wording is there, but most people don’t know. Turn the Constitution upside down, it’s in Latin. The Republicans, AND Democrats are aware the Constitution was altered illegally and refuse to restore it. Meaning they are both Traitors to the Republic. We are going to need guns soon. The Republic IS captured already, vote them out or force them out. There cannot be any other option or the Republic is dead, and this is a fascist dream boat.

      The constitution has never made mention of inflation (a natural function of any economy), or drugs usage, and income tax was allowed by the 16th admendment set in 1913, thus before WW2.

      Rolling back the constitution to pre ww2 would mean removing the voting rights of adults over the age of 18 and allowing people to lose voting rights for unpaid taxes, such as a poll tax. And also DC voters losing their presidential voting elector.

      E.g. you’re suggesting taking away voting power from the american people, which is quite a facist thing to do. Now go take your meds.
