Anyways: I’m a rather staunch opponent of fascism, so if you’re trying to insinuate that I’m rooting for that chucklefuck assassin, you’re way off base. I’m simply expressing the idea that the “intractable” political problem of gun ownership and reasonable regulation thereof would be solved fucking immediately if we forbade armed security details for legislators at any level.
Edit: oh yes, .world is a bit more… touchy about spicy posts, fair point.
.world admins subscribe to a “both sides are the same” approach and it’s simply not compatible with folks who are actively engaged in, let’s say, supporting and defending democracy.
This community is on .world so their rules apply. Your instance is pretty chill.
Wait, are you saying that action was taken to prevent shooters from entering legislative buildings to attack politicians? Oh boy, I bet that means that the same or similar action has been taken to prevent shooters from entering schools to attack children.
No? Well whose job would that be? Those politicians, huh?
Well then I guess this is gonna be as normalized as school shootings until they do something to meaningfully reform gun control.
It’s only the same dynamic if shooters are running into legislative buildings.
But they (the alt right) are assassinating politicians who are at home or alone.
