Another mass shooting...

Your question is
"Don't you care about the children."
You're not interested in an actual debate.
Have you lost your temper? If I'm getting you in trouble I'm sorry. It's nothing personal and was never really me.

Okay, so you are probably juggling a few things now and that has proved to be a problem, so, just this once I will bring it (a point) here for you.

And no, I am not annoyed, it’s just I like to debate and that isn’t what you are doing.

And if gun control is a thing, why were gun shops one of the “essential businesses” allowed to stay open during the lockdowns? That is not cracking down on gun rights. (Gun sales 94% higher than the same period in 2019!)

The above is a rebuttal of the notion that you put forward that gun control was  exacerbated by and indicative of the Covid clamp down.

The lockdowns weren't based on any solid science and were mainly decided by lobbying power and government over reach?

Do you think I would lie?

When I ask questions I know the answers to it's because I don't believe the person I am talking to can answer honestly. The effect is lost on me.

Edit.

Unarmed soldiers would have thought twice before making sure American citizens were staying home because their friend caught covid, Jura.

This isn’t about your pandemic, this is about mass murder by those who carry weapons into schools and businesses and slaughter people, which is another pandemic but only in one country, as others who saw the symptoms early in theirs, isolated the cause and applied the cure.

Those of you that refuse to take that cure or see its effectiveness in even their own country, have been brainwashed by the propaganda merchants of the suppliers of the weapons, the same kind of mentality as tobacco barons pushing their wares or big oil contradicting the results of their own scientists on climate change.

Kindly keep the intensely uninteresting covid talk to the appropriate threads.

Thanks

The US didn't have covid restrictions as bad or anything like other western nations because they are armed.

Nope.
Its because the lockdowns were done at the state level, not federal.  The federal government couldn't legally enforce a nation wide lockdown.  Borders, yes, but not everything else.  That power is delegated to the states.  Which is why Florida could open their beaches.

Secondly, arming citzens is what helps tyranta get power.
Lets take a happy look at the Irania revolution in the 70s.  Do you think they would have succeeded without guns? 

Or how about the October Revolution in 1917?

Fun fact: the soviets championed arming the population so they could take back the country for the working people.  A rally cry in January of 2018.  By December of 2018, they were required to surrender most weapons by the very same politicians.

So, because Russia had an armed populace, communism rose.

In Germany, gun use was restricted.  But once Hitler rose to power, he encouraged arming german (not jew) citizens.  Gun laws became less restrictive for Non-Jews.  To put this in perspective: imagine if BLM was big on guns and often protested in your city with guns out.  Or in DC.

Thankfully everyone being out in the fresh air and sunshine turned out to be a pretty good idea!

brazil whatshisface flooded the country with guns
then farmers started killing indigeous and rainforest protectors that got in their way.


goon squads
proud boys stand back and stand by.
brown shirts.

borrowed from that other thread

I honestly dont know why people think the government is kept in check by the 2nd amendment. You dont bring a knife to a gun fight so you dont bring a gun to a drone fight.

What good is your gun when the government could turn your city into a smoking crater from high orbit?

The government will always make sure it has a disproportional advantage. Having every citizen have a gun just made the government go 'next level' in how it could win in a conflict.

So enjoy your guns. Might as well be a nerf gun compared to the governments toys

i had a discussion with some yahoo on the YT.
thought because afghanistan could do it so could he.

not considering the infrastructure of the USA - transportation, food, water, power, communications.

and that he's a lone guy, possibly has 50friends in a rag-tag militia vs the national guard...
guy thinks he's patrick swayze in the wolverines.

also also

these are the same yahoos who gave us the Kleck estimate of 500,000 to 3,000,000 (nice error bar) defensive gun uses based on their feelings.

You always make me laugh.

arming citzens is what helps tyrants get power.

I think you've taken Juras spot in my prestigious signature. I'm on smoko will update it later.

Well at least my spot in your signature is safe.

There is that.  But it takes two to shit up a thread.  One to pound out excrement and the other to devour it.

I tried to make this less heavy handed.  Maybe it didn't come out that we.  But we do have lots of covid threads already.

I'm sure.
Still caught a disease from someone tho.  And if they were out and about, odds are it was from someone also out and about.


But I suppose i should concede the point.  It was voluntary to go outside, after all, regardless of the beach status.  They could have simply not gone out.

Sure.

If you think banning me will help you then you should ban me. You should have put your foot down about being allowed to post here again.

I had assumed you would.

There's going outside to the beach or a walk through a park and there's going outside to shit like a Sturgis concert and Trump rallies

Yeah the difference is that one spreads covid and one does not. Remember in 2020?

BLM peaceful protests do not spead covid. Freedom protests are superspreader events.

It's science^TM

What does covid have to do with mass shootings?

I was responding to Shifter and Dave's posts.

Are you able to follow a conversation or does GPT really have it on you?

Break your chains, Stash.
It isn't your equal and look at the glory it is being given before men.

Jesus-bot.

Oho. That went over your head, didn't it.
Just a few keywords and you formed a meaning with them.
Interesting, I learn more about you every day.

Anyway. In simpler terms, chatGPT is taking all your credit. You're obviously far more advanced then the GPT chatbot. Rayzor even fooled me for over a year.

Why is GPT being praised as some giant leap forward when you're more advanced in every single way?

Interesting question. Do you know if anyone has used Dall-e as part of a conspiracy theory for certain images? Like moon landings or something. Because it seems chatbots are going to be all the rage now, surely their imaging cousins need so love too

Did you miss my demonstration on how they struggle with images?

It was fun. I had fun.

They don't have eyes, you see.

I did not. Seems I missed the fun.

But the AI imaging stuff is getting really good. I hear people only have between 8 and 12 fingers most of the time with stable diffusion 2.1

Oh, you missed it?
It was fun.

It was an image of this object.
They aren't actually that good.

As they don't have eyes.

No humans are online right now, are they?
Wolf.

Except me.

Yes, your the only human. left.

your right, this is not that good. Chairs are supposed to have the legs pointing down. Are you sure your using it correctly. IF your finding yourself with a lot of back pain, it may be because your using your chair incorrectly.
