the horrors (uspol)
a tweet by the fucking NRA improving my mood is not something i had on my bingo card
let them fight!
re: the horrors (uspol)
@raindrops sigh. what tweet lol
re: the horrors (uspol)
@aescling a welcome change from them supporting disarming the Black Panthers in the 60s but, well, they're obviously still the NRA
re: the horrors (uspol)
@raindrops oh is this ultimately about the recent shooter who happened to be transgender
re: the horrors (uspol)
@aescling yeah uh
if you hadn't seen, the DOJ (among all the other bullshit) a couple days ago started "considering" if they can blanket ban trans folks from owning guns
i've been spiraling a bit since hearing that bc it makes it pretty clear that i need to have a CCL or leave the country, and i'm not a big fan of either of those options
and the timing makes me think this most recent one was set up to be politicized because the failed Dallas thing 2 months ago would've been an opportunity, but I haven't seen anyone talking about that probably because they know they can't pull as much sympathy for ICE agents

@aescling "The NRA supports the Second Amendment rights of all law abiding Americans to purchase, possess and use firearms.
NRA does not, and will not, support any policy proposals that implement sweeping gun bans that arbitrarily strip law-abiding citizens of their Second Amendment rights without due process."
