@iuculano Did you make this and if you did may I use it. It’s perfect.

@Pineywoozle

This was a tough question; and Joe staggered under it for a moment; but quickly recovered himself: and looking at his #Mastodon app, with the not-so-sweet face of acquired wisdom brightened with the inexpressible charm of all-conquering truth, he bravely cried out, “I can't tell a lie, Pineywoozle; you know I can't tell a lie.

I did not create it

@iuculano Were you by any chance drinking a cherry soda when you decided you couldn’t tell a lie? 😉
@Pineywoozle
..all while standing in the shade of a tree? No, lol 😉
@iuculano A properly functioning militia doesn’t attack residents at all, unless they are committing insurrection or at least crimes!

@iuculano

Thanks for adding #alttext, because this really deserves a boost.

@rgulick my pleasure, and thank you!
@iuculano Indeed. I don't recall the last time that a school shooting happened in Switzerland. Must be years ago, probably even decades.

@DC4AC

According to this #Wikipedia article that lists #MassShootings ( #firearm-related #violence with at least four casualties ) in #Switzerland since the beginning of the 20th century, do you know how many of them involve #children in #school?

NONE! ZERO! DIDDLY-SQUAT!!

@iuculano well, cops exist. Maybe some do.

@iuculano Wild how the biggest proponents of this amendement seem to have never actually read it. Hard to argue against regulations when "well-regulated" is RIGHT THERE!
@iuculano that's only true because they did not have schools for native Americans.

@alexch @iuculano Almost all militias are poorly regulated, and their regulations are poorly enforced.

@outer

yeah the founders were hammered on hard cider and had no idea what they were talking about half the time; the other half they were wilfully making hypocritical self-serving compromises with each other

@iuculano

But it seems crazed people do.

@iuculano I don't care what the Slave Owner Thinks.
@iuculano Notwithstanding that he did not say that, he would have.
@iuculano It's that forgotten "for a well-regulated militia" phrase! Somehow the "strict constitutionalists" lose interest at that point.
@iuculano Fun fact: The "well-regulated militia" in the Amendment is the US Militias, which were renamed when the Militia Act was updated in 1903, and are now known as the National Guard.

"Our well regulated militia is killing our children, at will."

@iuculano
Regulations are socialism. Are you implying GW was a Communist?
@iuculano amerikkkan politicians do kill Palestinian children though

@iuculano

I always wonder what the regulations for these militias are, and who is responsible for the regulations.

@iuculano THANK YOU. I continue to be amazed by military assault rifle nuts continually skipping over the "well-regulated militia" part of the #SecondAmendment
