I guess that’s why you don’t hear about it on the news lmao

It’s actually one of the more interesting cases

Some people call it the "Zebra Test". Also, check out news headlines of interracial violence and you'll notice a pattern where headlines will only mention the race of the perp in one direction.

It'll make you lose faith in humanity.

Pretty easy to buy guns when there are over 500 million of them in the country.

Ive purchased working firearms for $50 from a gun store before.

Tell me its hard to buy a gun of the street when the stores sell them for 50 bucks.

They also made laws against crimes like "murder" and "Assault with a deadly weapon".

All states allow firearm purchases.

The second amendment applies in every state.

If only...

Let me introduce you to Loop Holes, like New Jersey being a 'Shall-Issue' gun permit state, but never actually issuing them to people.

It got so bad the Supreme Court had to step in and tell them to fuck off.

Get a fucking job and I promise you you can overcome challenges. Thing is, you must kneel before God, get married and never stray, and make zero mistakes. If you aren’t cut from that cloth then be content in poverty, which isn’t your condition but stems from your character

Do you have a name for this ideology? If not, I suggest "Deterministic Capitalism"

I'm on my second marriage. Sure made mistakes in the first one. I am a person of faith. Does that mean I should be "content with poverty"?

Mainstream news: “aw shucks, we can’t push the white supremacy narrative, and this guy isn’t black so we don’t have to do a poverty/mental health deflection, so let’s move on to this being the gun’s fault”

Great example of why strict gun laws don’t prevent people who really want one from getting a gun

What would you do about the news if you had the power to change it?

It's called "being a normal person".

Always strive to be the best possible version of yourself, use your head, take advantage of opportunities where others don't, persevere and focus on your goals - but be happy with what you currently have.

If Capitalism is exploiting you, exploit it back. Take advantage of your landlord. Make money off him. Have a stubborn fuck you attitude.

I do not want or need your advice
