@raymondpert As much as I'm not a fan of any restrictions, I do think that demanding people to have at least shown sufficient proficiency and gun etiquette, knowledge of safety rules and not being known for domestic violence or convicted of violent crimes is reasonable to demand.

Still the overlooked Propblem nationwide is the #ViolenceCulture that spreads #PropagandaOfTheDeed and supports #StochasticTerrorism in the form of #AdvancedSuicides.

@raymondpert also #CopsAreCowards that ain't legally obligated to serve and protect anyone but the state and capital!

@raymondpert I'm convinced that makes a bigger impact on #PublicSafety espechally since nations with equal if not higher gun density per capita don't even come close to deaths by gun per capita.

(Excluding suicides but including advanced suicide victims except the shooter)

#Florida is 26th state to allow permitless carry despite risks to public safety, growing opposition >No permit, safety training, or background check: That's what's needed to carry a loaded #gun in over half the country. Nothing! #Florida is the 26th state to let adults carry #handguns without a permit or license. Meanwhile, states that allow permitless carry, which is also called "constitutional carry," continually see increased violence and death. https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2023/7/20/2182214/-Florida-is-26th-state-to-allow-permitless-carry-despite-risks-to-public-safety-growing-opposition #constitutional #US

@kkarhan @raymondpert Maybe you should fix that part, rather than allow them to take your money and do nothing?

@TomSwirly @raymondpert I'd love to but I'm neither a resident nor citizen of the USA, and as much as I'd love to replace the system, the odds would rather empower a facist coup and civil war than anything, making the lives of everyone worse.

The math says no, esepchally since that has already been seen and done with fatal consequences:
