Stricter gun laws absolutely help reduce
violence. Look at every other country in
the world and how much less gun violence
they have.
Making guns harder to buy reduces the
supply available to criminals. Every gun
a criminal has/had was at some point
sold legally. Requiring universal
background checks means no more private
sales without a background check. Gun
shows and private party sales don't
require checks today when they should.
If background checks are required for
any sale or gift of a firearm, this
means sellers will be liable if the
firearm they sold/gifted is used to
commit a crime if they didn't do a
background check. Hold people
accountable who put guns into the hands
of bad people. If a child uses a
parent's gun to commit a crime, charge
the parent for something serious. Send a
message that guns are serious and
dangerous in the wrong hands. People
will lock up their guns and be way more
careful about who they sell or gift them
to if they are liable for crimes
committed using their firearm.
Can't you see how these measures will
reduce the supply of legal guns going to
criminals and mentally unstable people?
Again, look at every other country that
has either gun bans or strict gun
control and their statistics clearly
show that they have less gun violence
per capita. If it works everywhere else,
it WILL work here.
Red flag laws and revokation of gun
ownership should be passed too so if
someone becomes mentally unstable and
starts posting about threats or violence
they want to cause, the sheriff should
be able to sieze their guns until they
have a psych eval and can prove they're
sane enough to get their guns back.
This is a stupid saying: the only way to
stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy
with a gun.
The best way to stop a bad guy with a
gun is to make sure they never have
access to a gun to begin with. There's
multiple reasons why arming more people
is a bad idea. There's too many cooks in
the kitchen then. Say you're in Texas at
church where many people carry. Someone
decides to start killing people in
church so 20 "good guys" with guns pull
out their pistol and have to decide who
the bad guy is... How many good guys end
up getting shot by other good guys? The
answer is quite a few. You don't always
know who the bad guy with a gun is if
all the good guys with guns draw at the
same time. You could be shot by other
good guys or cops on accident. Worse yet
would be shooting innocent bystanders
because there's a 20 person firefight
happening in church.
The solution goes back to people having
fewer guns and America getting rid of
their obsession with guns. Keep them for
hunting but don't make guns a
personality trait. The people who take
family Christmas card pictures all
holding guns is embarrassing as hell.
Like can't you just own guns and be
private about it instead of acting all
Macho and worshiping your weapons?!
FYI, I am a gun owner and have a permit
to carry. I do not carry but have the
ability to. I have several pistols and
some hunting rifles and shotguns. I have
no desire for an assault rifle and don't
see the need for others to want them
either. I think it should be much harder
to buy a gun and I support that.
The solution to gun violence is not to
hire more armed guards and police
officers to patrol schools and other
public places. All that does is cost
tons of money and doesn't prevent a bad
guy from shooting up a place. It may
only reduce the response time to take
out the shooter. Think 20 steps before
we get to the shooting. Preventing
access to guns is Step #1 in preventing
these mass shootings and requires no
extra money or armed guards.
Facts show these measures will work to
reduce gun violence. Opinions, thoughts
and prayers do nothing to stop gun
violence. Supporting the gun lobby does
not help. Allowing politicians to block
all gun control legislation does not
help. Over 90% of Americans support
universal background checks yet the
Republicans won't do a damn thing to
pass it.
I'll scream this until people hear it,
the Republicans are the obstructionist,
pro-death party. Their only platform is
to say no to democrats. They blocked
bills to reduce the cost on insulin,
help increase supply of baby formula,
help reduce gas prices, etc. They
actively try to hurt the American
people. They take away human rights.
They lie about science and allow their
supporters to die from covid by
spreading misinformation. They try to
scare their supports by putting the fear
of God into them with baseless claims of
replacement theory, war on God,
indoctrination...
The party has become a joke. No spine
and full of cowards who won't stand up
to hateful rhetoric. A coup attempt on
January 6 and the party still spreads
the big lie that trump won when he
clearly lost in the most secure election
in history. The party is becoming
worthless and the younger generation
won't tolerate all the BS.
Democrat is the progressive party that
cares about all people and as long as we
keep it moderate and speak up about what
we like and don't like, they are likely
to listen. Reach out to your politicians
and tell them what you want them to do
if you don't agree with their platform.

Once we had to cut a
road with an excavator.
Then we had to do
compacted fill in lifts,
the asphalt on the top
had to be milled down on
both sides so the
profile of the patch
formed a T shape. We
used the hot sticky
apshalt oil in a sprayer
to spray down the T
patch prior to dumping
hot mix on it and
compacting. The guy
running the sprayer was
almost empty so he
sprayed some of the
gravel on the edges of
the road surface in the
gravel empty his
machine. Not sure why
he wanted to empty it as
normally they just shut
off the burner and pump
and add more the next day.
An inspector came out
and made us do defcon 1
full hazmat clean up job
where he emptied his
sprayer.
Then the next year they
chip sealed that road.
That involves laying
down rock chips and
spraying the whole road
and a portion of the
shoulder with the exact
same hot sticky asphalt
oil mix we got in
trouble for the year
before. Same inspector
was there. I got out
and asked why UDOT can
do it and we cannot, is
the UDOT hot asphalt oil
less hazardous. He told
me to get off his work
site or I would be arrested.

Most libertarians I
know are just
crybabies. They want
the benefits of
governance without
the costs. In a
libertarian society
to have a 100 mile
road, you would
destroy your car
every trip because
there would be no
single governing
body to maintain it
in a consistent
manner. Sure we have
road issues now, but
every property line
you cross would be a
new road. And if
john at mile 6 like
cobblestone, its
cobblestone, and you
know keith at mile
23 is gonna charge a
42 dollar toll, kile
(with an I not a Y
and woke parents)
doesn't believe
asphalt and concrete
are environmentally
friendly, so mile 36
is made of soy and
has long since been
eaten by animals,
paul at mile 52 is a
dick and stores all
his nails on his
road, then Greg up
at mile 99 he
doesn't like people
so he put boulders
across his mile.
These fools are just
kid brains who want
no government of
someone else's, they
want their
government based on
their current whim.
Most of their
arguments break down
after a little long
term logic.
I also forgot to
mention, just like
wiping your ass,
it's best to not
push too hard on a
2022 liberal, you'll
just end up pushing
through to a
fingerful of shit.
