And this is why I am a proud gun owning liberal.

Armed minorites are harder to oppress.

Didn't the gun laws in California happen specifically after black Panthers open carried near a town hall?

Could be misremembering

You are not misremembering.

Ya, and this is where they really started to fix the "armed minorities harder to oppress" bug...by making sure the gun possession of POC happened within their constraints. IE gang violence, drug war, commodity fetishism, rugged individualism all to replace grass roots organization and useful gun ownership. YN with the never ending need for for new NIKES, armed with the strap and slinging rock for cash is preferable to armed class conscious community organizers.

I'm a proud gun owning leftist and please don't confuse me with a liberal

Democrats really love to take guns from people.

Democratic jurisdictions are usually under may issue laws, meaning, the police can use descretion to deny you a permit, and a permit is required in order to carry a gun.

The. Fucking. Cops. Have the authority to fucking deny you the ability to defend yourself.

Like... what?

Sure, lets let those pigs trample over your constitutional rights. Can we primary all those anti-gun dems?

Edit: So the Supreme Court struck down the most of the "May Issue" laws in 2022. Now its mostly "Shall Issue". Ironically, the liberal judges wanted to uphold those laws, while the right wing dipshits judges ruled to struck it down. Broken Clock, twice a day, you know.

The Dems are doing their part to facilitate the oligarchs that give both parties their marching orders

3d printer and some pipe.

If the guy with the splatoon gun can kill the Japanese president, Americans can make a gun at home for sure.

wasn't the united health CEO is also killed by a 3d printed gun?

I can confirm you can make a shotgun pretty easily with a trip to the hardware store and as long as you properly rust proof it, it'll last quite some time. Especially if you have a way to purchase thicker than normal wall piping. If you don't have a drill press and welder already, it'll be a little expensive.

Partially 3d printed aemi-auto is slightly harder, but again can confirm quite reliable if done right, and accurate as fuck if you properly rifle the barrel.

Myanmar has done quite well with the FGC9…
