Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.

Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.

7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link.

“After months of research, we have written a 1000 page report proving the solution is fewer guns.”
Republicans: “MORE GUNS! ARM EVERYONE!”
Why does America have some of the highest rates of gun violence in any of the developed countries, Blamemeta?
I don't know SMCF, why specifically 'gun'? Is the tool more important than the act?
Are you able to answer the question I asked or not?
I asked about gun violence on a thread about Biden creating a federal office of gun violence.
I'll assume you are unable to answer the question, Blamemeta.
Who banned bump stocks?
Who said “Take the guns first, go through due process second”?
Who said “I like taking the guns early, like in this crazy man’s case that just took place in Florida … to go to court would have taken a long time”?
I’m just pointing out the last president and last political party that made a run for people’s guns.
He wasnt exactly a party regular, by any stretch of the imagination. And he got kicked out after only one term.
Who’s leading the contest for Republican nominee right now?
Why aren’t you upset that he has tried and will try again to take your guns?
Well we started off talking about gun violence but you don’t think talking about guns while discussing gun violence is fair to the guns.
Then you switched to Biden and the DNC taking your guns even though that hasn’t happened and Trump was the last president to come after gun rights. But you don’t want to talk about that either.
I’m surprised you haven’t made up something outlandish like Biden wanting to cut off your penis and turn you into a cat girl or something because why have a real conversation when you can just get outraged about the culture war of the day.
Are you American?
If so how many guns do you own?
No problem if you don’t want to participate in this conversation, gun sales have not gone down at all.
Do you have any facts you want to share with the class because you just shared your emotions.
