    Greetings from Germany. Maybe you want to skip everything that happens from now on and end this before this lunatic takes office.

    On a unrelated topic: aren’t you the nation with the most guns?

      aren’t you the nation with the most guns?

      Yes, and ownership is predominantly with those who want to kill/ deport immigrants. In the US, there are ~120.5 guns per 100 people. However, this statistic is misleading, because you might expect most people to have 1 gun, and a few people to have more than one to get to that statistic. However, most households do not have a fire arm.

      So the average gun-owner, actually owns from 4-8 guns, while the majority of Americans own 0 guns. We have a culture of gun-obsessed rightwing psychopaths.

          As a non-right wing, non-psychopath, I’m uncomfortable with the idea of owning a gun at all.

          I don’t want one in my home and I don’t want one on my person. Even if I did purchase one and ended up using it to protect myself, the knowledge that I took a human’s life would be too much for me to live with.

          There’s a problem with TOO MANY GUNS.

          Let’s solve that problem by GETTING MORE GUNS

            The problem there is the government already has most of the guns and are very, very willing to use them.

              When was the last time the military used the guns against its population?

                Wounded Knee (the second one not the original one) was 1973.

                Kent State in '70. The Bonus Army (homeless WWI vets) in the 30s. Blair Mountain (coal miners on strike) and the Tulsa Race Massacre in '21.

                Only a half dozen times in the last 100 years or so.

            Remember that baby an officer shot the other day? Shoulda had a gun.

            I personally think there arent enough guns being used properly. But then again I think the funny shooty shooty bang bang sticks should be used to shed the blood of Saxon men.

          Its always interesting and telling how people respond to things. Your assumption that I don’t own a fire arm tells me more about you than it ever would myself.

              I’m really sorry if you’re having a bad day,

              Why did that lead you to respond in such an angry manner?

              I think you need to take a breath and check to see if you’ve made any correct assumptions whatsoever in this conversation. The tone of my response couldn’t be more sanguine.

        Trump has cult of personality, it will implode without him. Vance is an empty suit, RFK is nuts and sounds horrible, Musk is Saxon African Chris chan. My point is once Trump is dead most of his movement will most likely go static.

      The majority of the gun owners are also right wing Trumpers.

      Don’t forget the German police murdered JStark in 2021.

        Google says he had a heart attack.

          It also says that he had the heart attack in a police car while in police custody. Sounds rather convenient, don’t you think?
