17 Dead in Florida. GOP does nothing.

So, for all of those people saying that it's "clear" that mental health is at the root of this problem, and that increased funding of mental health services (I have never seen a more concise explanation of what exactly this would be), what efforts has anyone on the right ever made to actually expand mental health service availability, especially for poor people? Which Republican governors have made efforts to have counseling or therapy covered by insurance? Which Republican legislators are making efforts to advertise or create public infrastructure to connect people who need services with providers? Who is trying to increase funding into social or psychological research into violence and mental health issues?

Semi-automatic rifles are no more dangerous than semi-automatic hand guns, they are more likely to jam and are less concealable.

For 9 years the deadliest mass shooting in modern history, Virginia Tech, was executed with the use of a 9mm handgun and a .22 handgun. Handguns were also exclusively used in Kileen, Texas (1991) 23 killed; Edmond, Oklahoma (1985) 15 killed; Binghamton, New York (2009) 14 killed; and Fort Hood (2009) 13 killed.

Banning semi- automatic rifles specifically doesn't make any sense.

Yes, shootings happen because of other guns too. But please explain to me why would anyone need a semi-automatic rifle? Yes, gun control should focus on other issues too, but semi-automatic rifles should definitely be banned. There's just no single legit reason to keeping them so available.

Hunting.

If you're going to ban rifles you might as well ban handguns too because they're equally efficient at mass killings. Las Vegas is the only incident I can think of where the use of rifles made a difference.

Haha

Anyone who hunts with a semi-automatic weapon is a loser. Seriously, how bad at hunting do you need to be to have a weapon that assists you in any way? If you need one of those to hunt, you shouldn't be allowed to go hunting because you're already probably a tremendous failure at it.

Ok

Maybe you're right and semi-automatic weapons are useful for hunting after all.

Sorry to take so long to reply to your post, I was out for a jog with my rocket-propelled sneakers. Thankfully those sneakers made me six times faster than usual, or I would still be out there, actually exerting myself!

Please tell us what experience you have with hunting, especially for large game that can actually kill you if you aren't careful.
 

This is a sentiment I've heard from pretty much every recreational and/or subsistence hunter who I have ever engaged with on the subject. As for me, I have zero interest in ever hunting so I actually have no dog in this fight (and am agnostic on certain types of gun control). I'm just here to rustle your jimmies. If you guys want to go hunting with an semi, be my guest, just know there are whole communities of sportsmen who think you're a weenie.

Kids these days with their fancy technology, right? I for one never use these fancy 'bicycles' or 'cars' to get places. As for hunting, I don't know why anyone should need anything more than a crudely sharpened stick - if you're not chasing game dozens of kilometers across the savanna to tire it out before the kill, you shouldn't be hunting at all!

My man. Glad we're on the same page here 👌

Funny that you seem to be speaking about entire communities that you are not a part of, and only know a small handful of folks who are a part of them.

Uneducated, delusional lefties who know nothing about guns and hunting really have no business speaking about it. Take your Clozapine and move on.

brb, I'mma go trawling through your post history and dig up all the times you shared some dumb opinion on something despite not being an expert in that field

also, is that a joke implying that I'm a schizophrenic? Awesome.
