Handgun Control Now
Gun control is not an easy sell, and it is extremely nuanced compared to most of the fucking dumb politics in this country. It will take time and effort to explain that wanting to control handguns is not a violation of the Second Amendment, but even if it is a long, difficult game, someone has to start now. Controlling gun violence is a vital first step to curbing the police state in America. Get the handguns off the street, demilitarize the police and push back against the police state. If that doesn't happen soon, whatever anyone's twisted ideas of liberty are, they will never be possible. Right now the gun culture and the violence culture make the police state attractive to far too many Americans. America is lost until we get the guns off the street and away from the police. Liberty is not the freedom and ability to turn every interaction into a potentially deadly encounter with some whack job cowboy or some trigger-happy paranoid cop.
