    I didn't hear a single Republican calling for the banning of guns after the attempt. After Reagan was shot it lead to the Assault Weapons ban supported by both parties. How times have changed.

    Which is fucking wild since he was shot with a revolver. Pretty much the furthest you could get from their definition of an assault weapon while still being a gun.

    Aaaanyway, friendly reminder that the only purpose handguns serve is shooting humans.

    Also, Donald Trump was never shot. We never got the medical records or report on the wound. It was just swept under the rug. If there's report said he was struck by a bullet, Trump would have put it out. Just like if he had a good college gpa or his tax returns were legit or he wasn't implicated in the Epstein Files.

    Yes, many of us did. Limiting the availability of certain weapons would make a big impact on their use.

    Some people will always find a way, sure, but weapons with lower speeds are less lethal, and weapons that fire fewer rounds per minute hit fewer targets per minute, and a more complex firing operation (like a Bolt Action Rifle) can even further take the weapons out of the hands of children.
