Both parties have to be interested in governing for compromise to be possible.
Hence my strong arguments for finding compromise.
You are right but I stand by the same scenarioAdam Lanza was the Sandy Hook shooter.
So, play the same game that the other team has been playing for 30 years? Seems like a smart move to me.I'd really rather not walk down this very well-trodden path, but I would like to point out that you're basically saying that the solution to a supreme court that makes decisions on the fly is to get a different supreme court to make new decisions on the fly that support what you want. That's what got us into this shitstorm to begin with.
Does that include pump-action shotguns? So everything single action or manual reload. Might be workable from a technical standpoint (assuming no asshat neckbeards find a technical way around it) but you've got an absolute nightmare of a hill to climb to get it. 400m guns in america, at least half are double-action, probably closer to 90% if you're gonna throw pump shotguns in there.
And what's super fun about that is any attempt to get better results in more fighting, more sickness, and more death. Every attempt to dig upward just results in digging downward.
Hardball by Dems from this point until the election would look like.So, play the same game that the other team has been playing for 30 years? Seems like a smart move to me.
If someone else is cheating, and you're playing by the rules, they will never not cheat, and you will always lose. The best way to return to a normal game state, ironically, is to cheat worse.
So yes, Dems need to be ruthless and take every possible and miniscule advantage and make republicans wish they never tried being underhanded in the first place. Then we can return to a normal system of good faith arguments and compromise.
Is it in line with democratic principle? Not at all. But Republicans aren't operating with any principles other than accruing power, so the idea that we're breaking democracy is a flawed one. It's already been broken.

Republicans don't give a damn about your children. They care about fetuses
The pro-life Republicans voted NO on baby formula for poor people during the shortage.
Republicans care more about taking money from the NRA then the lives of your children
Republicans think stopping gun safety reforms is more important then your children being killed in school
The US is the only country with this problem because we have Republicans.
They can't be trusted with keeping the Democracy and they can't be trusted with the safety of your children
Nope, my argument is every gun owner believes themselves to be responsible until they aren't. The thousands who kill themselves each year with their guns believed as you do until they blew their brains out.
Ergo, you're a dumbass.
Then we should stop kidding ourselves that we're even in a democracy of any form, and simply vote in a dictator that agrees with our ideals. We'll have a civil war, one side will win, and we'll move on with whatever's left of our country until climate change kills us all.So, play the same game that the other team has been playing for 30 years?

Really? You think so do you?
You can't name a single time in your life that you did something out of character?
You think that you are a static being that never changes? That your beliefs today are the same as they were 10 years ago, and will be the same 10 years from now? You think you understand why you do the things you do? You (like everyone else) are not even very good at knowing your own motivations. More often than not you do something and then rationalize why afterwards. Your idea about who you are is probably not even that close to what others know of who you are based on your actual actions. It is impossible to objectively observe yourself.
Suicide affects families and friends, not just the person who killed themselves.And the number of people who fall into that bracket is a tiny tiny percentage of gun owners... dumbass.
I also fail to see how a suicide is in any way comparable to what happened in Texas. If someone blows their brains out my level of care is zero. It's a crime against himself. Not comparable at all. I'm not for gun control as a means to lower suicide rates.
But is it really necessary? When the other side is doing such horrible things, it’s enough without sinking to their level. As much as people keep saying the orange monkey got 11 million more votes. 15 million extra decided to vote against him. As long as Dems ride the gun regulations, hopefully it gets the wasn’t planning to vote in the midterm people. Maintaining seats important thing.Yep. If you're the only side playing by the rules, then you're always going to lose.

But it’s not just that. Okay teen suicides are majority solo. But adults are murder suicides. Jaded lover. Angry coworker.Suicide affects families and friends, not just the person who killed themselves.

There is a lot of people that don't follow safe practices when driving. No, not everyone is a good driver.
I see people everyday on their cell phone talking/txt when driving despite that fact that this practice increases risk and it is against the law.
However I know that I personally lower my risk when operating vehicle by not using my phone when driving.
My actions directly contribute to how safe driving is for me. It cannot reduce the risk to zero but it can reduce the risk.
Everyone is a good driver and yet there are 30,000 deaths a year related to driving...

It's an example of how having a gun makes you less safe. you willfully ignorant foot.
What evidence would you accept that would show you are less safe for owning a gun?I'm not convinced that owning guns makes me less safe. You can argue that as a nation that embraces guns that we are less safe than nations with lower gun ownership but me personally? I don't think I'm less safe for having a gun in the home considering that I am the only one with access to or any desire to access them. I have seen no proof to sway me otherwise. You can't just say that because other people kill themselves that I am more likely to kill myself. It's a ridiculous argument.
Which is more ignorant, the foot or the foot who argues with it? I am the right foot, you are the wrong foot.
