  • you say the lions share of murders are committed by drug gangs, but that’s ignoring the majority of gun injuries are self inflicted.

    And while it was written into the constitution it was amended into the constitution, and like the 21st which repealed the 18th, could be amended out again.

    you also say there are 5x defensive Gun owners. This is a made up statistic - there is no formal definition of a defensive gun owner, there is no way to shoot a gun defensively.

    While it may take time - a few generations - maybe even a dozen generations - to disarm the majority of households, it’s possible.

    who are you disarming

    the majority of gun owners own guns for fun/sport. So while, yes, it is sad to ruin fun, it’s also sad to have children killed.

    Finally, you don’t have to ban all guns, you could keep say, bolt action rifles and single barrel shotguns - where sports and hunting could still continue. This wouldn’t solve all the problems but it might have saved lives multiplicatively in mass shootings.


  • yeah it uses this really neat semantic rendering programming language for serving structured documents across servers

    It’s a bit tricky, but anyone with at least a Masters in CompSci should be able to parse some of it enough to get the gist. Bear in mind that the “source” is abbreviated to src, and “image” similarly. The rest is coding that gives the computer instructions, you’ll also need to replace FILENAME in the code with the actual filename. It goes like this

    <img src="FILENAME" /> 
    

    Let me know if I can explain it more clearly.
