The U.S. has more guns than people and frequent mass shootings. Meanwhile in Louisiana, it’s Second Amendment Weekend Sales Tax Holiday now through September 7. Ostensibly a gift to hunters, the exemption applies to all guns and ammo without limit.

In some American states, the minimum legal age age for possession of a handgun or a rifle is 18

HOWEVER

The legal drinking age in all U.S. states is 21 years, as mandated by the National Minimum Drinking Age Act of 1984

Stupid America

The nationalist Robin Westman left behind rascist and antisemitic messages

How inconvenient he wasn't a black illegal immigrant

There was a horrific mass shooting in my home state this October.

18 killed, 13 injured.

I have a track on a compilation raising money for those affected.

You can check out the compilation here:

Decided to listen to this masterpiece today. In particular, one song seems urgently apropos. #lewistonmaine #melttheguns #xtc
One of my best friend’s stepdaughter was at The Gorge yesterday. My man had a pretty terrifying 15 minutes (the kid is fine) this Father’s Day. Hug your loved ones and #melttheguns

@QasimRashid Apart from the guns something is not right

What I mean is, apparently more and more people are on the edge of murderous rage

The situations described are regular everyday occurrences, yet they’re enraged beyond reason

Then they have guns at their fingertips

Don’t know what they’d do if they didnt have the guns but them not having them would be a very welcome start

Nebraskans Against Gun Violence Mourns the Loss of Local Government

Gov Jim Pillen signed LB77 into law and wiped out all city firearm ordinances (firearm preemption) across the state.

*Stalkers will get their guns back in Lincoln
*Open carry will no longer require training and background checks in Omaha
*Cities can not require guns to be locked up and away from children anywhere in Nebraska

Together, we can stop gun violence but the fight just got harder.

I'd like the US to be a country where a person's ordinary mistake doesn't regularly result in death at the hands of a quick-triggered gun enthusiast.
