They want more regulations, huh? Then maybe they should try passing regulations that WORK, instead of stupid and useless "culture war" crap that appeals to ignorant snowflakes and motivates Republicans to vote. There's an idea, right?

And of course, your grandpa and great-uncle hunted with muzzle-loading rifles, and their fathers hunted with archery... and if you go back far enough they were all using the thighbone of an antelope to bash out the brains of zebras on the African savannah. Technology advances. Things change. Get over it.

In addition, people that abide by magazine limits for hunting don't want that limit imposed while not hunting. The three-round limit for migratory waterfowl is not something I want on my home-defense gun. Unreasonable, isn't it?

You need to reach back a little further in history. Our homicide rate was much higher from the late 60's to the early 90's, and there were far fewer guns per capita back in those days.

Not only were there fewer guns per capita, the guns that were around were far less likely to be magazine-fed semiautomatics! And the semi-automatic handguns were far less likely to have double-stack "high capacity" magazines or to use hollowpoint bullets.

As usual, the "good old days" were horseshit.

You want lower crime rates? We need progressive social and economic policies in place periods of time longer than an election cycle, and we can't get that if we keep voted out of political majorities because Democrats cling to stupid gun-control ideas!

In 2018 there were mass protests by gun owners in Virginia because of the gun-control agenda that state Democrats wanted to pass... including an "assault weapon" ban and magazine capacity limits. Fast forward 4 years, and a regressive idiot won in a state Biden comfortably won a year ago.

It. Fucking. Mattters!
