How the gun-loving South dominates these United States | (Extreme barf alert)
msn ^ | 14 apr 2023 | John Stoehr

Posted on 04/14/2023 3:29:07 PM PDT by rellimpank

Which states have the loosest, most irresponsible gun laws? Southern states. Which are most dominated by the Republicans? Ditto. Which are most resistant to “broader public opinion” favoring greater restrictions on firearms. Same. Which states send the greatest number of lawmakers to the US Congress to block any chance of national gun-law reforms. You got it.

Southern states with loose, irresponsible gun laws do not feel the effects of tight, responsible gun-control laws. But states with tight, responsible gun-control laws do feel the effects of loose, irresponsible gun laws in southern states. This is how they bend these United States to its will.

There are scores and scores of dead kids as proof.

To be sure, other regions feature similarly loose, irresponsible gun laws. But this doesn’t detract from my point. It adds to it. In the context of shooting massacres, Appalachian states, plains states, Rocky Mountain states have allied with southern states to project their power onto coastal states that outnumber them in population and economic power. They can’t dominate them with democracy. They can with the lethal effects of their gun laws.

To suggest that the citizenry in Chicago do not love guns is nonsense.

Oh heavens to Betsy! People electing other people who share the same views on the Second Amendment!

This is a danger to our precious democracy! It’s fascism!

I remember similar articles from the 1960s!

Today.....
“Which states have the loosest, most irresponsible gun laws? Southern states. Which are most dominated by the Republicans?”

1960s...
“Which states have the loosest, most irresponsible gun laws? Southern states. Which are most dominated by the DEMOCRATS?”

Which states have the best economy? Southern and conservative states. Which have the lowest crime rates if you subtract the democrat-controlled cities in those states? Southern and conservative-led states. Where are people moving to? Conservative-led states.

So MSN democrat-supporting media personnel, post a notice on your front door stating that “no guns are allowed here”, and let us know how that works out for you!

Uh huh. The southern states are resisting enlightenment from their bicoastal betters because their people have guns. Or you might frame it that normal people are reluctant to surrender their means of defense against violent urban thugs and demented fascist lunatics with homicidal politics. Could drop either way.

The author, John Stoehr, is a professional writer. He doesn’t write the truth, he just writes BS and sells it.

Standard fare. The Yankee dominated Northeastern Establishment has ALWAYS hated the South and Southerners. This goes back to well before 1776 and has never changed. They've been spewing lies and bile like this for centuries.

Their argument amounts to "our plan won't work because some people are still free. We just need to obtain total power over everybody everywhere. Then our plans will work." I've heard that one before.

Well, we can’t leave it to the bud light drinking faggots in the north.

Which states have the loosest, most irresponsible gun laws? The South.

Maine, Vermont, and New Hampshire have virtually no restrictions on firearms.

I’ll add this to:

If only the Southern states had more gun laws like the ones we in the Northern states can’t/don’t/won’t enforce, then the laws we can’t/don’t/won’t enforce would finally be effective.

Logic check:

Which is more likely the cause of gun deaths in the North (i.e. Chicago)?

A - Lax gun laws in the American South, or

B - Lax prosecution of Criminal Law in the North???
