Want to end the debate on gun control?

1. The President proposes a funded mandate that every swinging Richard and Betty over the age of 18 own a firearm for 'self-defense.'
2. The mandate is funded from the NRA treasure chest (afterall they are the proponents of a gun in every breadbox).
3. Along with the gun credit that every single swinging Richard and Betty receive to purchase a handgun and rifle of their choice, they must enroll in quarterly training, which is solely funded by the NRA.
4. Firearms manufacturers rejoice, ammunition manufacturers rejoice, training facilities spring up overnight hiring non-stop.
5. NRA shows sad face because they're broke and fuck 'em.
6. The President wins in a landslide.

C'mon, right wingers!

Put your money where you mouth is and I don't mean your money in our government's mouth.

You bootstrapping John Wayne wannabes, it's time to MAN UP.

... that is nothing.

DU goes completely non-linear when it comes to guns and logic and reason are simply the red-headed step child to raw emotion and the ridiculous notion that you can somehow make a murderer care about some pissy little law.

I have seen the gungeon and have seen the talented posts some pro gun control people leave such as "a penis extension" "strap a gun or two in your pants" etc.

can we get those provided also?

Will the NRA get federal grants to provide the people with these firearms?
