Schlecht bei Nachrichten, Faktenchecks / Wissenschaft, Mathe, sozialen Interaktionen, Ratschlägen.. aber hey immerhin haben wir photorealistische Fake-Videos von lustigen Tieren und Emails die keiner lesen will.
can we lay this myth to rest? I keep hearing the 50% number from expats / tourists / international friends and it's simply not correct.
For the vast majority of people its 42% or less.
E: sorry for the kneejerk reaction, I also wanted to say: fantastic coment overall.
I'd add the current political climate and generally stronger right wing/conservative leaning of the general population.
when even his party colleagues are careful about defending him, i'm pretty confident he will be out for the time being.usually they jump at any opportunity to play the victim, but here they dance around the topic pretty obviously
shooting live rounds into a crowd of (presumably) unarmed or lightly armed (think sticks, stones) protesters is a vile, inexcusable failure or intentional executions to retain the status quo.A police force with tear gas, water cannons and riot gear has zero reasons to resort to live ammunition.
so you're hell bent on the claim that no meaningful amount of left leaning people in the US possess guns and that's the root of the problem.do you have numbers on that or is it more of a vibe fact.
No botanicals involved.You are either completely misunderstanding or intentionally misconstruing like half of what i'm saying.DESPITE your great plan of arming every waking being, and many guns in civillian hands, nobody is keen on starting a civil war - as is evident by the lack of any shootouts of the great armed population against ICE.
If i really have to spell out the specific implications and meanings of anything I write, so you don't move goalposts every other comment, i'd rather withdraw from this utterly pointless exercise.
Notice how no civil war is breaking out.Notice how nobody wants to start a shootout with armed forces?Notice how the only real world impact of civvies arming themselves is more civvies die?
I'm from a country with sensible gun laws and no gestapo snatching people off the streets. yet we still take to the streets in protest of a far right party blasting past constitutional lines - they're currently under investigation and potentially to be banned in the future.
All without posturing as armed defenders of democracy watching it's downfall from the sidelines.
It's not that people relied on the right to fight anything - it's more the fact that none of these manlyman hero "good guys with a gun" ever step up.The whole point of the criticism of 2A is that every single argument for it is bullshit with no basis in the real world.
die frage stell ich mir auch
