On X, Kirk insisted, "Gun control, like vaccines and masks, is focused on making people feel 'safe' by taking freedoms away from others. Don't fall for it."

    He's right, just not about the right topics.

    Things like the TSA changes post 9/11 are primarily security theater, ineffective security requirements that make it seem like it makes you safer while just being a waste of time.

    Most of the changes in the Patriot Act removed citizen rights for "security" yet have resulted in very little else apart from removing those rights.

    When you design your messaging to appeal to the most violent of people, you will get violence. Politics be damned at this point.

    I once saw a car with two stickers on the bumper:

    A Jesus fish and an AK-47.

    In my town the shitty tent in front of a supermarket that for years has sold Let's Go Brandon and other dumb Trump merch recently transitioned into Grateful Dead merch and other tie-dye crap. To say Jerry Garcia is doing back flips in his grave would be an understatement.

    I vaguely remember a priest having blessed his guns in Constantine ( the Keanu Reeves one).

    Or perhaps it was Dogma?

    You might be confusing movies with Texas...

    We genuinely have churches that'll have congregants bring in their guns en masse to have them blessed so that they'll shoot the right thing. Seriously.

    Texas: the state so bad that even the dude who designed the flag rated it one star.

    Star Bear out of 5 is a much more accurate rating for California anyway 😁

    I haven't seen Constantine but George Carlin as a priest in Dogma blessed his golf clubs. That allowed them to kill a demon.

    In Dogma, the catholic Cardinal played by George Carlin blessed his golf clubs. Silent Bob used it to kill the demon.

    And I believe all of Constantine's weapons were blessed. So he could kill demons.

    We're both hippie soy boys, and radical left violent extremists.

    Revelation that the Kirk shooter was a disillusioned Qanon weirdo upset about the Epstein debacle when?

  • They allowed him to turn himself in... seven hours ago? and haven't plastered anything about him besides his name and major across the right wing news. that means he was one of them. if there was anything not straight white male christian conservative about him, it would be everywhere.

    The violent left are actually usually highly intelligent people instead of fucking morons who run around making straw man arguments on why they should own a gun.
