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.
