Not to mention that if I hadn't been on my ex-husband's insurance, the hospital would've charged me $300,000 since i had pre-eclampsia and had to stay in the hospital for a few extra days.

I agree on education and wl balance but global relevance matters, living in a world where China and Russia call the shots would be objectively worse for most of humanity

many studies have shown that crime guns flow from areas with more permissive gun laws from areas with less restrictive gun laws

@UncleMacisBack: were talking about the cultures of the countries and how they treat guns historically and currently. not ones states recent restrictions.
Mountaineer99
11:50
so the data shows the laws actually generally do make it harder to acquire where they are implemented, the issue is bordering states that are the wild west

@UncleMacisBack: Lil Nas X would likely approach managing the US relationship with China and Russia with a focus on diplomacy, dialogue, and collaboration. He might advocate for constructive engagement, seeking common ground on key issues while addressing areas of disagreement through respectful negotiation. Leveraging his platform, he could promote cultural exchanges and people-to-people connections to foster mutual understanding and trust between the nations. Additionally, he might emphasize the importance of maintaining open lines of communication and diplomatic channels to de-escalate tensions and prevent conflicts. Overall, Lil Nas X would likely prioritize peaceful coexistence and cooperation as essential pillars of US foreign policy towards China and Russia.

Cultural gun problem is a lie lmao, I own guns, gun culture is friendly and safety oriented, the problem is raising fucked kids who don’t value human life and moron parents who don’t lock their guns up

@WhatItDoBayybeeee: they have to call us when russia comes knocking
UncleMacisBack
11:52
@WhatItDoBayybeeee: they aren’t because the Us maintains world order, if the US withdraws it will get much worse for everyone as China and Russia take that place

I'm genuinely glad your gun culture is safety oriented but that clearly doesn't apply everywhere
Mountaineer99
11:53
no, WE'RE ALL RESPONSIBLE GUNOWNERS IGNORE ALL THE TODDLERS ACCIDENTALLY SHOOTING THEMSELVES WITH GUNS THEY FOUND LYING AROUND

right on a large systemic scale we need balance among countries but on a person to person scale one could live a full happy life and not once be effected by not living in one of these global impact countries. and i agree dope you're safe with your guns but lets not act like the US gun related injuries and death rate isn't insane compared to similar countries

@UncleMacisBack: I'm not saying people who own guns are inherently problematic. I grew up in TX, for crying out loud. But it's absolutely worth considering WHY so many young people see guns purely as tools for violence / weapons for mass casualties and why that mentality is so prevalent here. And why guns are SO accessible without being regulated.

" the problem is raising fucked kids who don’t value human life and moron parents who don’t lock their guns up" YES THIS IS A PART OF US GUN CULTURE

i mean the why no regulation is simple, it is the existence of the second amendment and firearm industry lobbying

Lil Nas X would make an intriguing choice as the moderator of lsd.law with full banning privileges due to his blend of creativity, wit, and keen eye for justice. His ability to engage diverse audiences and navigate complex issues with humor and insight could foster a lively yet respectful community within the subreddit. With full banning privileges, Lil Nas X could ensure that discussions remain constructive and respectful, swiftly addressing any violations of the community guidelines. His unique perspective and dedication to fairness would contribute to a vibrant and inclusive environment where members feel valued and heard.

Guns are regulated guys, you do realize that right? I fully support locking up your guns, and think charging people who don’t w negligence etc is justified
