The Governor just called the school shooting in Tennessee a “tragic situation.”
Think about that.
🇳🇱
@georgetakei I'm not sure I'm following... It is a tragic situation isnt it? Very tragic.
@freemo @georgetakei And yet our Republican leaders refuse to do anything about it. Instead, they ban drag shows.
The Republicans dont do anything, and the democrats act in ways that make it worse.. both sides are guilty in that sense.

Democrats try to institute magazine capacity limits, bans on bump stocks, bans on guns designed for the battlefield, red flag laws, background checks, waiting periods....it goes on and on.
Republicans regularly block those legislative attempts then promote gun culture on their christmas cards.
You are wrong.
> Democrats try to institute magazine capacity limits, bans on bump stocks, bans on guns designed for the battlefield, red flag laws, background checks, waiting periods....it goes on and on.
Yup all examples of things that pander to the public because a misinformed public think those things help when in fact they make things worse... especially when thats what they SAY they do.. for e4xample no, they havenever banned a gun meant fo the battle field, they ban things like AR-15 which has never seen a battle field and its overwhelming use is to kill small pests. It isnt even suitable for deer hunting... so yea they sit there doing things that people will **think** are real actions but int he end the end result is an increase in violence not a decrease beecause all they did was restrict access to guns for people who arent the problem.
Yes republicans do block those nonse4nse, uninformed, and not backed by science attempts... they arent wrong for that...
Now where republicans ARE wrong, and they do bare a lot of blame, is in the blocking of access to mental health and other things which are actual genuine solutions to our problem.
Nope, sadly thats not true.. Though I can understand why you might think so as there is a **lot** of manipulated and unethical use of statistics out there and it takes a professional to usually spot it and discernt he credible analysis from the junk.. but yea, anyone who understands data science and is truely being objective will see, quite clearly, not only did they not work, they made things WORSE.
If you want to threaten to block every scientist who tells you your wrong and not have a mature conversation instead, go for it. You'd be doing me a favor...

Block the freemo misinformation troll like I just did.
@freemo @Litzz11 @georgetakei
Those attempts ARE backed by statistics. The Clinton assault weapons ban worked. Lower magazine capacity worked. Regulation works.
It doesnt take 3 paragraphs of backpeddling whataboutism BS to make my simple documented by clear statistics, evidence based point. No other country in the world has this republican designed problem. My finger is on the block button with you.
