    Before I ask know that I’m not anti amendment #2…..I own a gun and if my pit bull doesn’t stop someone from breaking in then the gun will.  FYI police officer at my house once said the dog is the best defense 

    Is it true that men who collect guns are compensating for small genitalia?  Heard this all my life 

    I seriously doubt such an admission would be made by such people...

    It's probably one of those things rooted in some truth but not even close to absolute. See also, big trucks as compensation.

    Women , men, children. White, black , green. Ny, Texas , California. 

    Everyone , everywhere loves guns. Another broad daylight execution. So sad. 
    Nothing could be further from the truth.
    You know what I meant. People from everywhere, all genders, all ages, all colors. Is that better? Not literally every single human. 
    No, I didn't. Are you saying that attraction to fire arms and the willingness to use them and be "responsible" are universal? If yes, why duh. Don't know why that would even need to be stated.

    NY is probably experiencing an uptick due to the surge in gun sales everywhere but particularly from states that have greatly loosened the restrictions on purchasing. Guess you might appreciate the Biden Administration directing the ATF to focus on straw purchases and the dealers who sell to those "responsible" and what happens after?
    I have a very different opinion on why criminals are running the city at the moment.

    Yes. And? Why does this bother you? Are you here? This has nothing to do with politics. Fuck the left and fuck the right. How’s that? Can’t make any statement without you taking it as a personal
    political attack.

    Stop reading the Post. Deal in real stats and not fear mongering. Things in NYC have been way, way, way worse than today and the city wasn't characterized as "being run by criminals." And keep believing that the surge in gun buying and easier availability of firearms hasn't contributed.

    I guess the whole country, east of the Mississippi and eastern Tejas is "being run by criminals?" Time to find a new country.

    Short answer... yes.
    It's probably one of those things rooted in some truth but not even close to absolute. See also, big trucks as compensation.

    Stop changing the narrative.  She has nothing to do with gun violence in NYC. Just like Trump had nothing to do with the hate violence against Asians here in NYC. You’re response was directed at me when I brought up NYC. Instead of just talking about guns you had to throw a WHITE FAR RIGHT LUNATIC into the convo. For no reason. As always.

    Mexico to sue U.S.-based gunmakers over flow of arms across border

    MEXICO CITY — The Mexican government said Wednesday it plans to file legal action against several major U.S.-based gun manufacturers, alleging that lax controls contribute to the illegal flow of weapons over the border, according to documents obtained by The Washington Post.

    The unusual suit is expected to be filed in U.S. federal court in Boston, since some of the manufacturers are headquartered in Massachusetts, according to the documents. The suit — which seeks unspecified financial compensation from the companies — does not target the U.S. government.

    Mexican authorities believe U.S.-made weapons have fueled the explosive violence that has transformed parts of the country over the past decade. Around 2.5 million illicit American guns have poured across the border in that time period, according to a Mexican government study released last year. Legal gun sales in Mexico are tightly restricted.

    The lawsuit maintains that the U.S. arms manufacturers “are conscious of the fact that their products are trafficked and used in illicit activities against the civilian population and authorities of Mexico,” according to a document from the Foreign Ministry.

    “Nonetheless, they continue to prioritize their economic benefit, and use marketing strategies to promote weapons that are ever more lethal, without mechanisms of security or traceability,” the statement continued.

    The suit names companies including Smith & Wesson Brands, Inc.; Barrett Firearms Manufacturing, Inc; Beretta U.S.A. Corp; Glock, Inc; and Colt’s Manufacturing Co. Llc.

    The lawsuit also seeks the adoption of tighter controls in sales and security features on weapons. It also wants the companies to undertake studies and media campaigns to prevent arms trafficking.

    Women , men, children. White, black , green. Ny, Texas , California. 

    Everyone , everywhere loves guns. Another broad daylight execution. So sad. 
    Nothing could be further from the truth.
    You know what I meant. People from everywhere, all genders, all ages, all colors. Is that better? Not literally every single human. 
    People love the narrative that white, male rednecks are the only ones who belong to the gun culture in the US. It makes it easier to marginalize a large group of people and sling insults, I guess.

    No, I didn't. Are you saying that attraction to fire arms and the willingness to use them and be "responsible" are universal? If yes, why duh. Don't know why that would even need to be stated.

    NY is probably experiencing an uptick due to the surge in gun sales everywhere but particularly from states that have greatly loosened the restrictions on purchasing. Guess you might appreciate the Biden Administration directing the ATF to focus on straw purchases and the dealers who sell to those "responsible" and what happens after?
    I have a very different opinion on why criminals are running the city at the moment. 
    "Criminals running the city."
    Yes. And?
    Its a laughable characterization.
    Laughable from where you’re sitting. 
    Stop reading the Post. Deal in real stats and not fear mongering. Things in NYC have been way, way, way worse than today and the city wasn't characterized as "being run by criminals." And keep believing that the surge in gun buying and easier availability of firearms hasn't contributed. 
    Everyone knows that politicians and city officials in NYC are beacons of moral value, have never taken bribes and are the least corrupt of the humans.

    Pretty ridiculous. No way corporate executives at US firearms manufacturers would have an inkling. Kinda like tobacco company executives not knowing their/there/they’re products caused health problems.
