Annihilator (Gun Control Thread- NOT SHOOTINGS)

[djzombie]

Did we really need legislation to prevent deaths from a meme?

I think we should have just let natural selection run its course on this one.

[archibaldcrane]

Maybe we should rethink allowing racists to have easy access to firearms.

Fuck. I wish I could say "Unbelievable" but sadly I can't.

"It is just absurd that this happened," says Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard. "I feel terrible for the young man; I feel terrible for the mom and the anxiety that they had to go through. We are going to ask for every charge permissible for this guy, who stepped up and fired a shotgun because someone knocked on his door."

I hope they make the max stick. Fuck both of those racist assholes.

That's where investigators told her the family's Ring doorbell recorded the encounter. Investigators watched the video with Brennan and his mom. She says the video confirmed their suspicions.

Damn and they recorded the evidence too.

"One of the things that stands out, that probably angers me the most is, while I was watching the tape, you can hear the wife say, 'Why did "these people" choose my house?'" she says, before taking a long pause. "Who are, "these people?" And that set me off. I didn't want to believe it was what it appeared to look like. When I heard her say that, it was like, but it is [what it looks like]."

So the take on this is, if you have a black child, don't take away their cell phone, otherwise they can't use google maps when lost and wind up getting shot at asking someone for directions.

Maybe if the black child had the cell phone someone would've shot him thinking he stole it.

Disgusting racism aside:

If anything -- why would I knock on your door to rob you?

To ensure the house is empty before you try and burgle it, this is break-in 101 lady.

As long as google directs him to the back of the bus, this should work fine.

But if they have a cell phone, it would get mistaken for a gun and they'd get shot.

Parenting is hard.

[Koyangi]

So, shot at if you had one and shot at if didn't have one, they just can't win, can they.

[Surealistic]

So, shot at if you had one and shot at if didn't have one, they just can't win, can they.

maybe if they would just stop being/acting black, gawd, is it so hard to just be white?



yes, this was sarcasm...

Yeti updated out of date discount programs which ends up terminating their NRA deals. Gun nuts respond by shooting Yeti products.

Meanwhile, at the NRA:

NRA breaks 15-year fundraising record after Parkland shooting

The powerful gun lobby's political fund raised $2.4 million (£1.7 million) in March, filings submitted to the Federal Elections Commissions (FEC) show .

The total marks the most it has raised in a single month since June 2003.

March was the group's first month of fundraising since the Parkland school shooting in Florida left 17 dead.

Most of the donations, which was $1.5m more than it raised last year during the same period, came from donors who gave less than $200 (£143), FEC records show.

This is not the first time a shooting has resulted in a boost in donations. The NRA raised $1.1m (£787,000) and $1.5m (£1m) in January and February 2013, just after the Sandy Hook school shooting in Connecticut.

[Byrthnoth]

This is what always gets me about the NRA narrative. 2.4 million dollars being their best month means maybe they average 1.5 per month which gives them a total budget of 18mil/yr.

How the shit are they such a juggernaut on 18mil/yr?

[DrClout]

That's only donations and not membership fees I'm assuming.

Here’s the actual letter YETI sent to their customers- http://www.thewilltohunt.com/2018/04/yeti-coolers-nra/

Dear Vendor Program Manager,

YETI recently completed an audit of its retail corporate and consumer products. As part of this , we have made changes to support our price policy, revised and mailed new dealer agreements and updated various pricing programs to clarify and simplify the YETI approach. As part of these changes, we have made the decision to end a variety of legacy vendor programs including the [COMPANY/ORG NAME] effective immediately. Please note that we will fulfill all existing orders that YETI has received as of today but we will no longer accept new orders under the legacy vendor programs.

As a result of ending our vendor program, we request that effective immediately you remove from your existing digital assets any intellectual property or trademarks belonging to YETI and you refrain from using any such IP or trademarks in any future print material.

Should your organization wish to purchase customized YETI products, they can do so through our broadly available bulk discount program by contacting [email protected]. Please contact your Business Development Representative should you have any additional questions.

Kind regards,

[Fiye]

Their voting bloc is really fucking dedicated and active and they make a point to bring up local, state, and national level issues. When town halls are happening. And who has the better rating.

I'm honestly surprised there isn't an organization for this on the marijuana side of things but then again I suppose police could bully the shit out of it into oblivion.

Yeti makes such good shit, even if I was diehard NRA member you couldn't pay me to shoot up this tumbler. It's replaced all my coffee cups, shit keeps coffee hot for hours, idk what kind magic they got going on but that's a great brand.

I wouldn't shoot up a Yeti product because of how much that shit fucking costs but then again this is the same demographic that broke Keurigs so eh.
