Oh yeah, banning guns is far outside our Overton window for sure. It’s a career killer for any politician. Just look at Beto O.

But_my_mom_says_im_cool@lemmy.world 2 days agoI’m not American but know plenty, you’re all pro gun. It’s kinda crazy. Even democrats will defend gun rights. I saw a figure that said something like 61% of democrats are pro gun control, not ban but control. So that leaves 39% that are pro gun, on top of the pretty much 100% republicans who are pro gun rights.

I used to be pro-gun control due to the prevalence of school shootings. But seeing what Trump is doing with ICE (literally masked men throwing you into a commercial van) and reading the history of armed resistance (e.g., Black Panthers protecting each other from police brutality) I think it’s time we acknowledge that we are not going to vote our way out of this mess. Let’s not take a means of legal resistance of the table.
