Totally agree, I was trying to come up with something that is more feasible than forcing bad parents to be good parents.
It’s a bit draconian, but my suggestion is that if anyone becomes a serial killer or mass murderer, the FBI tracks down who their parents were and throws them in prison

I don't believe for a second that banning guns will reduce *overall* violent crime.
I'm not saying anything about banning them outright, I'm talking about having sensible gun control laws. And you can believe whatever you want, but there's a mountain of evidence showing that some (obviously not all; the details matter) gun control laws do reduce gun violence.

The simplest evidence isn't even any wonky scientific study or anything: it's other countries around the world. They all have (for instance) basic laws about background checks and such that we don't have.

In Germany anyone under 25 has to pass a psych eval to buy a gun: how many school shooters would that have stopped here? In Italy you have to demonstrate a need for a gun and go through a criminal and mental health check. And so on for many others.

None of those countries have our problems with mass shootings, but the fringe right NRA crowd has so dominated the discussion that even reasonable measures like background checks can't pass here.

Regardless of the race, if a kid grows up poor, abused/neglected, bad education, very little job opportunities in his area, his chance of success plummets. And so does his kid’s. And his kid’s kid’s. And his kid’s kid’s kid’s

It takes almost a miracle person to break that cycle. I’m all for giving as much assistance as possible and fair, but a lot of it is still gonna end up on the individual, just from a reality standpoint
So let's prevent abortion and force more kids to be born into that cycle, yay!

Won't work, for the same reason longer prison sentences don't. When someone decides to murder someone, they're not thinking "well if I do it and get caught I'll only get 20 years, not 25 ... yeah I'm in!" They're not even thinking about the sentence at all, they're thinking "I just caught this guy with my wife!"

Similarly if I'm afraid to beat my kid because I know I might get caught now, eg. because my neighbor might report me, that might actually influence my behavior. But the threat of going to jail 20 years down the line for something I'm sure will never happen to me? It doesn't matter if the penalty is being flayed alive, it won't influence my behavior.

Putin simp says what now?

The war was because they want to preserve the old Soviet sphere of influence despite Ukraine kicking out the strongman he had installed.

Stop invaliding the heroism of the ukrainian soldiers you russian simp.

listen to this shit we need this https://www.frontlinewildfire.com/ho...vers-wildfire/

I bet the civil war is going to happen when the LEFT refuses to believe the election results, and in 2024 does what they said trump would do in 2020.

I mean they said that trump would start world war 3 and here we are with them fucking LOVING it

and lormain thinking it was our military that fricking has been fighting it for christ sakes. What a fucking mess we've turned ourselves into.

loramin actually thinks us military space lasers are secretly winning the war in ukraine.

The Ukrainian military and civilian militia stepped up and saved their country, no question: I'm not trying to argue otherwise.

What I'm saying is without Western military support it wouldn't have mattered how hard they fought, Russia would have ultimately dominated.
