they’ll be lobbying hard for strict gun control.

This is America. No they won't.

Turnip banned guns at his rallies and his boot lickers didn't care much at all.

If this starts becoming a thing where rich fucks face mob or lone gunman attacks, you can guarantee they will make laws banning guns in "freedom zones".

Almost all blue states have strict gun control laws thanks to racist white Republicans, see Black Panther Party in California.

That's what makes it so wonderful. A madman has taken the keys, and his platform is built by crazies who idolize guns more than their own children. You could no sooner remove gun culture from America than you could alcohol or cheeseburgers.

Man, that time American politics tried to remove alcohol from its culture was fuckin’ wild

[–] Nindelofocho@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago
