Let's Get It Over With, Give 'Em What They Want, Make It MANDATORY To Carry A Firearm At All Times [View all]

I continue to see the arguments from the ASSHOLES on the right, who laugh when these mass shootings take place in states with "stricter" gun laws. Forgetting the fact that these laws are relatively meaningless, in a wide open America, where it's almost as easy to acquire a firearm in 80% of the country, as it is to buy a loaf of bread.

Their argument usually comes in tandem with the insistence that we'll all be so much safer if EVERYBODY was armed. MORE GUNS is the solution.

So let's just do it. YOU GET A GUN! YOU GET A GUN!! YOU GET A GUN!!!

EVERYBODY GETS A FUCKING GUN!!!!!

Then let's see whether the amount of daily gun deaths goes down or up.

I will say this. It's going to make me a lot less likely to get into even an argument with someone about so much as the weather, if I know they could pull out a gun and shoot me if things go south.
