Annihilator (Gun Control Thread- NOT SHOOTINGS)

[dasva]

Casual reminder that the majority of guns used in crimes in Chicago come from out of state (Indiana in particular).

Murder tourism? Man Chicago has some cray cray ways of attracting business

[Mythe_Seraph]

Looking at this chart objectively, without any further application, it's saying that the state with the most strict gun laws import the most guns and export the least guns to bordering states.

A few other observations:
-Width of import to IL from 4 bordering states that have differentiated gun regulations are generally equal.
-State with closest proximity to Chicago has largest import arrow.

What exactly are you saying here? What can you expect to happen if Indiana imposes similar regulations? You will see an increase of width in import arrows from different bordering states.

so objective, much observation

[archibaldcrane]

What exactly are you saying here?

That gun control needs to be national, not state by state, so smug dipshits like yourself can't point to a particular municipality's gun laws and look at their murder rate and say "see gun control doesn't work obviously!" even if they can drive 30 minutes to easily access a firearm in Gary Indiana.

You did see the source on your image there right? lol. That was created by the smug dipship overlords!

Imagine their next graph where instead of bordering states it turns into bordering countries oh my goodness.

[archibaldcrane]

what the fuck are you even talking about

[Roranora]

I fancy a try here.

..that, one, crossing with firearms from Sonora to New Mexico is as easy as crossing state lines?

..and two, that the NRA ensures beaucoup firearms are made in Mexico?

[archibaldcrane]

Ah yes, the natural bounty of Mexican firearms that certainly didn't originate in the United States lol

If gun control is suddenly wrenched out of state control, then I personally think that a lot of the stricter states are in for a worse time. Things will be close to some kinda middle ground of all the states' laws, not instantly dragged to either of the strictest extremes. Hell, if the gun problem is one of mass importation from Indiana, then MA handles fireworks from NH better than that. They work with local law enforcement to note any MA plates at firework shops, and the cars are stopped at the border. Indiana and Illinois could easily set up watch systems for cars from either state that are suspected of smuggling.

The existence of federal regulation does not necessarily inhibit further regulation by the states.

ie. If federal law says mandatory background checks for all handguns, a state can still pass a law for an additional waiting period as well.

[Rooney]

Exactly. And let's be honest, it's gonna have to be federal to get some states to do anything at all.

[archibaldcrane]

Indiana and Illinois could easily set up watch systems for cars from either state that are suspected of smuggling.

But firearms aren't illegal in Illinois like fireworks are in Massachusetts.

Conservative radio is scaring their listeners with "Corporate gun control". Its basically people who own guns being singled out by businesses. If you own a gun, then you cant get as loan, a credit card, or be employed if that corporation decides to.

Then they complained about ESPN and the NFL. LOL

[Fiye]

I typed in google "Corporate Gun" and it auto completed. I'm scared.

LMFAO

These fucking conservative fucking idiots.

A short, non-exclusive survey should help paint the picture. Citigroup struck one of the first blows, taking action in March:

Citigroup is setting restrictions on the sale of firearms by its business customers, making it the first Wall Street bank to take a stance in the divisive nationwide gun control debate.

The new policy, announced Thursday, prohibits the sale of firearms to customers who have not passed a background check or who are younger than 21. It also bars the sale of bump stocks and high-capacity magazines. It would apply to clients who offer credit cards backed by Citigroup or borrow money, use banking services or raise capital through the company.

Not to be outdone, Bank of America has acted against assault weapons. Here’s the beginning of a New York Times story from April:

Bank of America will stop lending money to gun manufacturers that make military-inspired firearms for civilian use, such as the AR-15-style rifles that have been used in multiple mass shootings, a company executive said Tuesday.

It's funny because they make fun of Bernie and Ocasio-Cortez, but then complain about capitalism affecting gun rights.

Can Withstand Multiple 9mm shells Fired from a .44

I think zoom quoting is a bannable offense so just use your imagination lol

[archibaldcrane]

The actual quote is

Versare Solutions on Wednesday unveiled its Portable Shield Partition, which the maker says "can withstand multiple impacts by .44 magnum and 9mm ammunition."

[6souls]

So, what I said.

[archibaldcrane]
