Und schon haben die Ösi-Büchsenmacher volle Auftragsbücher 😏

In #USA klappt das jedes Mal - immer, wenn ein Polity die Worte "Waffengesetz verschärfen" hört steigt die Party und die Porsches fahren aus der #NRA - Tiefgarage

Da wird jahrzehntelang der zweite Zusatzartikel zur US-Verfassung interpretiert als individuelles Recht, Waffen zu besitzen, damit man sich gegen eine tyrannische Bundesadministration - 'bloss keinen König!' - verteidigen kann.

Oder meinte die #NRA doch, der Zusatzartikel bestünde, um den Tyrannen gegen ein freiheitsliebendes Volk zu verteidigen?

It's going to be really interesting watching the MAGAs tie themselves in knots trying to pivot to "The government taking away our guns is good, actually" once this lawless administration reaches that step in the Fascist Playbook. [1]

Will the NRA finally rise up against the authoritarian government, as they've long claimed as the justification for their gun fetish? They haven't done it in the last five months.

[1] Probable schedule: sometime between next week (due to "violent unrest in California and other places targeting ICE just doing their job") and just before the 2026 midterm elections are cancelled (or more likely "postponed").

Ray (2019), on #racial #social #systems, has well over 2000 citations because it's an excellent piece of work. Despite that, Ray mistakenly cited a 2016 article by Bracey rather than his 2016 dissertation to make a point about #Evangelicals and cited Zakrison et al. (2017) to make a point about the #NRA despite it not mentioning the NRA. Curious how many people will now cite these two papers for the wrong reasons (without reading them) as a result

But then I always thought that "the right to bear arms" would be utterly useless in fighting against tyranny anyway -- because a successful dictatorship is always backed by the military, and the military are ALWAYS going to have better weapons than civilians.
The NRA are, and have always been delusional in that regard.

H.R. 38 and S. 65 would create a new federal mandate that would force every state to recognize every other state's standards for carrying a concealed and loaded gun in public—including states with weak or no standards at all. This legislation puts all of our communities at risk.

Fight back by urging your U.S. senators and representative to oppose H.R. 38 and S.65:
