@alfredo_liberal it is the favorite feature of many. Have you seen all our other features. We have quite a few nice custom features

@alfredo_liberal hey, as a left of center myself I can say you will probably find this a good fit in that regard. We certainly have a more moderate crowd here witb a left lean.

Great to have you on board, reach out if i can help.

@pj

I have nonproblems with making sure the usual background check from a gun were enforced on all purchases. So if thats all you are puahing for you have my support

@thatguyoverthere @mike805 @lmrocha

@pj

Yea you just buy top up cards from the phone store in cash.

@pj

No you can buy prepaid 5g for your router and have anonymous internet if you want.

Thats what i do in Israel, my internet is completely anonymous.

@pj @thatguyoverthere @mike805 @lmrocha

If you physically attack someone with a gun you loose the gun... how do you physically attack someone on the internet though? Not sure i follow

@pj @thatguyoverthere @mike805 @lmrocha

You also need a gun shop to buy a gun, not sure the analogy works too well honestly

@pj @thatguyoverthere @mike805 @lmrocha

Try shooting someone and watch how fast your gun is taken away... same logic.

@pj @thatguyoverthere @mike805 @lmrocha

Do you think getting on the internet should mean approval from a club thoigh? Cause thats not how we do it now, anyone can get internet and cant be denied.

@pj what approach.. you can fly certain types of airplanes with no license or regulation of any kind... cant remember the last time it was a major issue though, most people dont even know.

@pj

The idea is great except where its required.. it would be like saying if you want access to the internet you need a fediverse instance you join and that gives you permission to get on the internet.

@thatguyoverthere @mike805 @lmrocha

@pj

I think its good to join a gun club, and most gun owners tend to.. but yea requiring membership is a horrible idea imo.

@lmrocha @mike805

@pj well its not just about number of people killed but also frequency. 60 people killed in a mass shooting happens what once every 100 years or more... 60 people dieing is already a relatively small number when you consider the hubdreds of thousands that die in violent acts a day. Compund that with the fact that it has happened once at that magnitude in the history of the USA id labeled it as so small as to be insignificant overall.

@pj

The issue with trying to address a very small and rare subset of the problem is you often make the larger problem which is more common worse in a desire to fix a less common problem... its similar to premature optimization in software

@lmrocha @mike805

@lmrocha

Hahah thats some impressive projection you have going.

See ya

@thatguyoverthere @mike805 @pj

@pj

I think the problem is misrepresented. Mass shootings are not the problem, violence overall is and mass shootings is a very low priority when it comes to addressing that. It is too arbitrary and rare to call it the problem

@lmrocha @mike805

@lmrocha

Ditto, but hey if you want to take away my brownie points for calling you out for putting words in scientists mouths thry never said, go for it.

Frankly i figured you'd be better than intentually misrepresenting and manipulating the science out of a need to support your biases.
