listen, those are great ideas, but this guy is not going to investigate them

you literally told a specific individual not to get a gun

an alcoholic’s chance of getting blackout drunk dramatically increases if they have access to alcohol

does my chance of getting blackout drunk increase if I have access to alcohol (no, it remains zero)

we can all see you deliberately mixing up “the general public” and “a specific named individual,” it is obvious fuckery

how many suicides do you think the average person is involved in

do you think that if x% of people attempt suicide, that your individual chance of attempting suicide is x%

Note that the centrist fails to spell out what this statistic means and instead says “killed by your own gun” as if a mean ghost posesses the gun and it sprouts legs and beats you to death

an interpretation that isn’t a deliberate lie would look something like this: the presence of a gun in a home makes attempted suicides and domestic violence more likely to be fatal, and also sometimes correlates with (not causes) increased threat of violence and decreased access to safety from the police

and none of those problems (except for the suicide one, obviously remove your access to guns if that seems like an attractive option at all) is fixed by not getting a gun

i did not expect to have to ask this, but: do you think the events described in the article are good or bad

so how’s “refusing to vote for a genocide” workin out again
