so this is what they meant by good guy with

Theres just no way to fix gun violence in this country, sorry CEOs :'(

I've heard the solution is more guns somehow.
- In this particular context? Definitely.
- As a wise man once said

Only took how many school shootings before a good guy with a good showed up? And someone still died, almost like guns are meant to kill people.

And sometimes killing people is the right thing to do.
Guns also took down monarchies
- Now do oligarchies mascarading as democracies next
- But not 50 cent. 9 shots and dude was fine. I'm not sure if that speaks more for how much that guy needed glasses, or how rushed and anxious they were doing it that they never thought that precision was part of the process.
  
  9 attempts and shitty results, that shit screamed government work.

It's not hyperbole to say that this is exactly why the 2nd Amendment exists. It's been bastardized and misrepresented for a long time now but this is explicitly the kind of tyranny the founding fathers envisioned we would need protection from. In their time the people with the power to extract wealth at the cost of human suffering were mostly monarchs and other governmental bodies and in our time massive corporations have joined those ranks but that doesn't change what's happening at a fundamental level.

It’s not hyperbole to say that this is exactly why the 2nd Amendment exists.

The Second Amendment was based partially on the right to keep and bear arms in English common law and was influenced by the English Bill of Rights of 1689. Sir William Blackstone described this right as an auxiliary right, supporting the natural rights of self-defense and resistance to oppression, and the civic duty to act in concert in defense of the state.[12] While both James Monroe and John Adams supported the Constitution being ratified, its most influential framer was James Madison. In Federalist No. 46, Madison wrote how a federal army could be kept in check by the militia, "a standing army ... would be opposed [by] militia." He argued that State governments "would be able to repel the danger" of a federal army, "It may well be doubted, whether a militia thus circumstanced could ever be conquered by such a proportion of regular troops." He contrasted the federal government of the United States to the European kingdoms, which he described as "afraid to trust the people with arms", and assured that "the existence of subordinate governments ... forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition".

Imagine if this is what gets big corporations to lobby for gun control.

Nah they will pay for private security and lobby more mass surveillance and more police state. I mean if there the CEOs aren't denied, defended, or deposed first
- Then a member of that private security has a loved one get a claim denied. Then where are we? Right here again.
Historically, that would not be at all surprising. That's basically what Reagan did in California because of the Black Panthers
Fuck that.
It'll just be more gun control for the poor.

There are a lot of things the government is perfectly happy to let you own as long as you can pay the extra fees and permits.

Somehow I find the mental image of a coin-operated anesthetics machine that you wake-up mid-surgery to put more coins in hilarious in a dark way.

Somehow reminded me of Futurama

In late stage capitalism we might have to take judgment in our hands to get justice.

We grew up with morals and ethics which tell us to obey the system and value life. But later you'll realise they themselves only value life which is rich and (in the best case) white. Morals and ethics are used to oppress and control us. Oppressors without morals and ethics should not be tolerated.

No cap

What/when is that image from?

When the Hill-dog was running for president in 2016 (I think). She was visiting common folk to see how they lived. She looked more shocked to me.
