It’s An Honor To Continue Being Valued Over Countless Human Lives
Look, I’m not the type who needs constant validation, and I have never sought preferential treatment from anyone.
I just try to focus on doing what I do and not get too caught up in what people think or say about me.
But I have to admit, it’s been hard to ignore all the support and appreciation I’ve been receiving lately, particularly over the past several years.
That’s why I want to take this opportunity to let all of you know what an absolute honor it is that you continue to value me over countless human lives.
I don’t want to get too sentimental or anything, but it really means the world to me how
often you as Americans, through your words and your actions, make it known that I am more important to you than the lives of your fellow citizens.
Truly, from the bottom of my heart, thank you.
You see, I’m just a humble lightweight, magazine-fed semi-automatic rifle; I never expected this kind of outpouring of affection.
But time and time again, you’ve shown me how much I matter to you.
To see so many people —
people who could be working to protect and care for human lives—
actively devoting their time and energy to making sure I’m the one who’s protected and cared for instead—
it’s beyond touching.
Don’t think I haven’t noticed all this.
Rarely a month goes by without all of you pausing to weigh me against a certain number of lives
—often a dozen or more—and quickly deciding I’m more worthwhile.
Gosh, you must really, really love me.
I mean, wow, who do I thank first? I guess I’ve got to start with lawmakers. No one so consistently speaks up on my behalf, praises what I stand for, and does everything in their power to make sure no harm ever comes to me.
These are individuals who have hundreds of thousands of cons uents whose lives they could so easily put ahead of my interests, yet these principled elected officials steadfastly refuse to do so.
Instead,
they stick to their guiding beliefs and firmly declare that I—a simple modular rifle with high-capacity-magazine compatability—have more value than any number of human beings. It’s truly humbling.
What a blessing it is to reside in a society with such clear and unwavering priorities.

You searching out pics of guys in their underwear is what it is.
Pretty much.
How many dead kids are you willing to put up with in order to have unfettered access to guns?

Go take a nap old man and stop imagining me. I didn't kill those kids, the white supremacist shooter did. Keep the focus on him.
White House: Guy with legally purchased gun shouldn't have had it
The White House is now saying that the Parkland, Florida, school shooter should not have had the gun he used to kill 17 people … even though the AR-15 assault-style rifle was obtained legally.
“In this instance, this individual did obtain the weapon through a legal background check," [principal deputy press secretary Raj] Shah told Fox News during an interview.
"You know, we don’t know all the cir stances surrounding it, but obviously he shouldn’t have had that weapon and shouldn’t have been able
to do the kinds of things that he did.”

slaughtering and maiming dozens of people is just "kinds of things" ?

It wasn't the time then to talk about banning assault rifles.
How about now?

Budget undercuts Trump focus on mental health, school safety
President Donald Trump is calling for a focus on mental health and school safety in response to shootings like the one that took 17 lives in Florida, but
his budget would cut funding in both areas.
Trump's latest budget would slash the major source of public funds for mental health treatment,
the Medicaid program serving more than 70 million low-income and disabled people.
The budget also calls for a
36 percent cut to an Education Department grant program that supports safer schools,
reducing it by $25 million from the current level of $67.5 million.

correction:
No, there haven’t been 18 school shootings in 2018. That number is flat wrong.

How do you lose all your guns in a boating accident?
Lol you’re one stupid forum dweller. That meme has been around as long as the Internet. I think it originated with an ad or something.
Oh, so how many guns do you currently own?
Pretty creepy thing to ask another dude on the internet.
“If you can’t properly differentiate a clip from a magazine then I get to keep muh guns!”
I think best case scenario we can realistically expect from all of this is that it creates a social stigma around being really into guns.
Your gun collection isn't cool. Your pictures of yourself holding guns aren't cool. The way you revolve your self-iden y around being a gun person isn't cool.
or unfettered access to schools
I told you last time, ban guns, you pussies.
rinse, repeat

FBI admits it didn’t investigate tip on alleged school shooter last month
https://nypost.com/2018/02/16/fbi-failed-to-investigate-tip-on-school-shooter-last-month/
But the agency said it failed to pass on any of that information to its Miami field office, even thought its own protocols say he “should have been assessed as a potential threat to life.”
Certainly sucks in hindsight that they didn't identify this guy as a threat but my guess is for every one of him there are 10,000 other little bags who post stuff like that online "for the lulz" and turn out to be as threatening as boutons with a pillow.
it's cool if you want to keep making excuses for an agency not needed any longer and who have gone rogue anyhow.
Sure. But they didn't even turn his name over to the local branch to follow up on.
Seems like it would have been an easy thing to do to at least pass it off. Then if Miami doesn't want to screw with it, it's on them.
