No it doesn’t. It just takes putting your political toadies in the seats. They just say whatever the fuck they want to say. It’s not an institution that means anything. Not any further than ‘they get to say whatever the fuck they want’ that is. Have you read their decisions? They’re barely even trying to pretend anymore. Why are you?
I do use mine for target practice though. I shot competitively when I was younger and really appreciate the skill aspect. I have fond memories of my grandpa teaching me how to shoot, but hunting has never been on my radar.
January sixth, probably played a pretty big role in me actually “pulling the trigger” tbh. That and a PB demonstration down the street from me.
If I was honest, it’s basically a super dangerous bowling ball to me.
Quick! While you’re doing numbers, compare the number of times a gun didn’t “solve” that problem vs the number of times a gun was misused and someone died. False-negative vs false-positive. It’s just numbers and not relevant, but see how it goes.
Defensive gun use numbers are hotly contested, but low-end estimates are in the hundreds of thousands of instances per year in the US source 1, source 2. Those numbers include times when simply pulling a gun was enough to stop a situation from escalating into a overt violence. Obviously people that oppose 2A civil rights wish to downplay defensive firearm use as a way to prevent violence, and people that support 2A civil rights want to champion those numbers. Per my second source, it is disputed that those instances of defensive gun use ‘saved lives’–many of them might have been used to e.g. scare off burglars–but there’s it’s harder to dispute that defensive gun use is quite high. It should also be obvious that it’s impossible to know whether a life would have been lost or not without defensive gun use; there’s no reasonable way to know if, for instance, a home invasion robbery would have turned into a murder if you were unarmed.

When your product’s only use is to commit mass murder and you advertise it as making you an invincible badass then yes.
Your point is irrelevant. “Only a tiny fraction of the land mines I placed outside a school killed any children.”

Sadly, no one will read this, those that do don’t give a shit. Thanks for leaving all this info anyway.
It is not true that cutting food is the primary use of a funco brand model A kitchen knife

A huge comment, but I fail to find what you consider other uses beside what you commented on.

The supreme court says whatever the fuck they want. It’s not some sacred institution that should be respected.
You can go tell them that, and see how far it gets you.

But honest question, why do you buy a gun like that if you’re never ever going to use it? For what purpose do people buy these things anyway?
If police and proud boys have them…
