Are you against car and driver licensing and registration?
Regulate cars on public places are one thing, but in a private is a way of tyranny.
Anyway, despite living in a country with Mexican style draconian gun control laws, i usually go on firing ranges and visited "ranges" on neighbor countries
I don't own any firearm(only a crossbow) but if i wanna an illegal gun, get will be ridiculous easy. Some photos on firing ranges/stores
Find a semi auto .30-06 rifle on neighbor countries aren't hard.
Just for the record, this was a "good guy with a gun". An armed security guard. Cops shot him dead on the spot. So let's rephrase it to what it actually means, which is a good WHITE guy with a gun. There is absolutely nothing you can do as a black man to innoculate yourself against being murdered by the state. Nothing. It's just something you have to flat-out live with everyday of your life.

You din't mentioned that gun control was used mostly to disarm oppressed people in the history, on Ancient China crossbow ban was used to maintain the status quo of elites oppressing peasants. On feudal Japan too. On Brazil Empire, whites, mestizos and indigenous had the right to own guns, but blacks wasn't able to have guns. Only the "capitão do mato"(fugitive hunter) had this right. On Nazi germany, only those with an "Aryan certificated" can have guns. On Colonial USA, there are death penalty to anyone with a long firearm.
And USA got his independence against the strongest empire in the world at the time with "voting"? Or with guns?
The difference between noble/peasant, freeman/slave, etc was that only the privileged can own guns, disarming = transforming the population into cattle.
This is because whites are the vast majority of the population. Blacks are disproportionately likely to be killed by law enforcement. Whites are the majority in many things, but a lot of that is because of their sheer numbers rather than anything else.
A good example would be that whites earn most of the income in the United States, but Asian-Americans earn more on average than whites. The relative numbers are as important as the absolute numbers.
Blacks are disproportionately more likely to be killed by law enforcement but they are also disproportionately committing more violent crime, sometimes by vast amounts, and so one would reasonably assume they are getting involved in more dangerous altercations with police. Before we assume police are racist, we should account for this factor.
Oh yeah, and the Florida elections.
If nobody has questioned the legitimacy of the Florida election in this thread, just questioned it, not even call it fraud but look at the evidence and consider what is going on rather than dismiss it all cause Trump, I really can't take any more claims of caring about election integrity seriously. Obviously two vastly different standards exist for what constitutes suspicious and the only dividing line is party affiliation. I imagine I will get a lot of replies giving an extraordinary amount of benefit of the doubt to the commissioner, where none would exist otherwise, proving my point. That is all.
Actually it's not all, here is a history of the shady and illegal practices of this democratic election commissioner in the past going back over a decade and continuing until this year, including destroying ballots early, not mailing ballots out, hiding away uncounted ballots, taking things off the ballot that should have been on them, not updating the state, opening ballots in private.
Am I saying it's fraud? Not at all, I don't have all the info. Am I saying this thread has consistently cried foul based on 1/10th as much evidence but with the backing of party affiliation behind it? Absolutely. I mean she was only ordered by a court to stop opening mail in ballots in secret 3 months ago, no reason to call anything into question.
But I don't mean to berate the audience. I merely find it a double standard worth pointing out, as I hope one would point out my blind spots.
I had heard of the Florida issue and was outraged, but didn't realize there was any real difference between that election and the one in Georgia, and therefore saw no need to comment. It seemed redundant to criticize two cases of the same thing.
I actually wasn't aware the accused in question in Florida was a Democrat.
The most recent questions about Snipes have been the most potent for Republicans: A Florida judge ruled that Snipes violated state and federal laws in when she destroyed ballots too soon after the 2016 election, despite one of the Democratic candidates in a primary race taking her to court to preserve the ballots and a federal requirement that mandates ballots be kept for 22 months after an election. At the time, Snipes blamed her staff for the "mistake." "When I sign, I sign folders filled with information," Snipes said in her testimony. She later said, "I trust my staff. They have the responsibility of giving me information that's correct." She was also party to a lawsuit in 2016 regarding a medical marijuana amendment that was missing from some absentee ballots and another decided in 2018 regarding when and how her staff could open absentee ballots.
As for the "counting unlawful votes" thing, that appears to have only a single witness and no confirmation of the charge. As for the Washington Examiner article... there is no evidence that the wrong date on this (single) person's ballot was due to malicious intent rather than bureaucratic error. And it doesn't actually connect Snipes to the event. Most of the content in that particular article is speculation rather than substance.
Now that I see the details, I don't see this as quite as scandalous as Kemp's multiple successful attempts to stop tens of thousands of people from voting. Still, that sounds like more than enough evidence that somebody besides Snipes should be in control of this process.

Only one more thing about "blackwashing", "whitewashing" is awful too. Like for example, an white woman being the main character of Ghost in the Shell movie(named Motoko Kusanagi), to be fair more important than skin color, is the cultural elements. For example, Avatar was heavily based on Asian martial arts and spirituality but on Legend of Korra, the "republic city" becomes too "new york like" not mention dualistic mentality of "good VS evil" becomed pretty common on the second season if i remember correctly...

An interesting read between the differences of Canadian political press conferences and American ones in light of the Acosta incident.
It's because a very large portion of America values order over freedom. Not just law and order, but anything that upsets their sensibilities at all. Though I will again point people to the video of Barack Obama handling a conservative heckler in the waning days of the 2016 campaign juxtaposed to how Trump treated them and how he treats the press. Obama also willingly sat down for at least TWO interviews in his Presidency with Bill O'Reilly, which aired before the frickin' Super Bowl. Half-hour interviews with someone who couldn't have possibly been more ideologically opposed to him, and was in every sense JUST as rude as Acosta supposedly was, if not more so. And he simply say there and calmly answered his questions. You know, like a grown-up.

That's a pretty stupid commercial, and I didn't see the movie, just like I didn't see Avatar: The Last Airbender, either. I don't spend my money on things which can't possibly be as good as the original. (To be fair, I didn't watch the Cartoon Network Avatar, either. Just not for me. Neither did I watch "Legend of Korra".
I am quite a fan of anime, and I know what "Kusanagi" is. It's the sword of the Japanese Imperial Regalia. Calling a woman "Mokoto Kusanagi" is like naming a western character "Jane Excalibur". (Kusanagi actually means "Grass-Cutter"). Cultural appropriation is pretty stupid, period.
The BBC are currently doing a series of programmes and articles on fake news. It's clear from that how easy it is for fake news to have fatal consequences. That's even true in countries like the US and UK where marginalized individuals can be worked up into taking extreme action. In countries with greater existing ethnic and religious tensions though, fake news can result in much more widespread action by communities - see today's update from Nigeria for example.

Curious. Vegetarianism and veganism is usually more associated with left-leaning types. I suppose the influence of vegetarianism among the Nazi leadership might account for it. Funnily enough, it wasn't a few weeks ago that we had some white nationalists proudly drinking lots of milk to boast of their lactose tolerance--vegetarian, perhaps, but definitely not vegan.
I suppose there's no reason white nationalists would have a unified ideology. Maybe it's just that white nationalism has grown enough that there are lots of different strains of it.

I also sort of noticed that it kind of resembled this one...
A politician can ruin a lot of lives, the state murdered much more people on last century than all mercenary armies on the history combined.
The role of the politician is not the flaw in your logic. Some politicians may have a lot of power over me, but they do not have it because just one person voted for them. On an individual level the responsibility of having a vote is much lower than the responsibility of running around with a loaded gun. Your analogy would work if the President was picked totally randomly.
Another completely separate point:
A lot of the states that murdered people did so only after being taken over by armed revolutionaries. It's also not true what many people state that the first thing dictatorships do is disarm the population. For example, the Nazis specifically disarmed the Jews, but in general relaxed gun legislation for the rest of the population substantially.
The city of Des Moines ultimately yanked an affordable housing loan that Whitaker’s company had been awarded, and another lender began foreclosure proceedings after Whitaker defaulted on a separate loan for nearly $700,000. Several contractors complained they were not paid, and a process server for one could not even find Whitaker or his company to serve him with a lawsuit.

It's also not true what many people state that the first thing dictatorships do is disarm the population. For example, the Nazis specifically disarmed the Jews, but in general relaxed gun legislation for the rest of the population substantially.
See Ronald Reagan and the right in California IMMEDIATELY calling for gun control once the Black Panthers starting trying to exercise the same rights as white people in the '60s. See Philando Castile getting shot to death by a cop while legally carrying a firearm and informing the cop in the exact way you are supposed to. See the security guard shot on sight by a cop a few days ago for doing his job. See the man shot to death in a Wal-Mart for examining a BB gun. See the dozens of black men shot just for having their hands somewhere in the general vicinity of their waist when around a cop, whether they were armed or not. It is very clear African-Americans don't have the same gun rights as white Americans. They can TRY to exercise them, but they risk being gunned down on the spot for doing so.

Having an gun and walking on streets with an loaded gun are not the same thing.
As for nazi germany disarming "non aryans", this only shows how gun control is a tool to control the population and turn itself into a livestock, like other examples that i've mentioned.

Not all white nationalists are nazis. Some of then criticize nazism and say that no more regime killed more whites than nazism... To be honest, i saw even some ancaps who are WN on reddit. There are also some who are anarcho-tribalists like Varg for eg.

Florida Recount Finally Wraps Up, Al Gore Declared President

I suppose there's no reason white nationalists would have a unified ideology. Maybe it's just that white nationalism has grown enough that there are lots of different strains of it.
Another completely separate point:
A lot of the states that murdered people did so only after being taken over by armed revolutionaries. It's also not true what many people state that the first thing dictatorships do is disarm the population. For example, the Nazis specifically disarmed the Jews, but in general relaxed gun legislation for the rest of the population substantially.

Whitaker abandoned taxpayer-funded project in Iowa in 2016
https://www.apnews.com/885a44ac27944976ab1b6738e0c5ba38?fbclid=IwAR2M415hXbDHjkPtoWh3Z47b70UsiBtpJhassVSn3Njhvm7LrJZ2KwUWOaQDES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — While in private business, acting Attorney General Matthew Whitaker walked away from a taxpayer-subsidized apartment-rehabilitation project in Iowa after years of cost overruns, delays and other problems, public records show.
The city of Des Moines ultimately yanked an affordable housing loan that Whitaker’s company had been awarded, and another lender began foreclosure proceedings after Whitaker defaulted on a separate loan for nearly $700,000. Several contractors complained they were not paid, and a process server for one could not even find Whitaker or his company to serve him with a lawsuit.

No, White Friend—You Weren’t “Embarrassed” by Barack Obama
https://johnpavlovitz.com/2017/05/26/no-white-friend-you-werent-embarrassed-by-barack-obama/?fbclid=IwAR19NHg9X5Ma9i1uZsES0ur2lmhHGZ_W2DnVGblo_S53nttMk9iweHNWAVcWhich goes directly to this opinion piece, I agree with it completely. If you (you, collectively) were 'embarrassed' by Barack Obama and are *not* embarrassed, or even ashamed by Donald Trump and his actions, then that says something about you. And it's not complimentary at all.
The answer is we need a good white guy with a gun to protect the good black guy with a gun.
About not wanting someone to have power over you, spoiler : Everyone already have. If someone wanna an illegal gun, the person will get, if someone wanna kill you, the person will be able to have an illegal firearm... According to forbes on Canada only 13% of homicides was committed with registered firearms( https://www.forbes.com/sites/danielfisher/2013/01/22/canada-tried-registering-long-guns-and-gave-up/#4980ed405a1b )
As for nazi germany disarming "non aryans", this only shows how gun control is a tool to control the population and turn itself into a livestock, like other examples that i've mentioned. Not all white nationalists are nazis. Some of then criticize nazism and say that no more regime killed more whites than nazism... To be honest, i saw even some ancaps who are WN on reddit. There are also some who are anarcho-tribalists like Varg for eg.
Anyway, nazism = National socialism, is a type of non marxist socialist( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Types_of_socialism#Nationalist_and_ethnocentric_socialism ), is right wing by most definitions but like most socialist doctrines, can't work on the long run. Right and left wing authoritarianism are both awful.
