More importantly, this isn't a burning issue unless your an ammosexual who needs to scream about guns every 30 minutes or the shell-casings that make up your grey-matter start to bulge with pressure, or someone who thinks suppressors are like magic death sticks that make guns even scarier. This is a moderately successful attempt at creating more distraction and contentious social discourse.
Just scroll down, there are already hundreds of gun-obsessed lefties and libs even on Lemmy screaming back and forth about this like it's going to change the world and lead to more/less murders.
Meanwhile... the bandits continue to haul money out of our treasury, the laws that protect us are getting repealed, and the tools we needed to build a better democracy are being destroyed, all while the worldwide economy leaves the US behind.
