I agree Elon is growing and he has come a very long way!! The man has a GREAT sense of humor and is fabulous at trolling the Elites on Twitter!! He has become the richest man in the world YET does not live like such he is very frugal in his lifestyle EVERYTHING goes back into the business he in no way flaunts his wealth!!

I think that place where they can legally settle scores is called the US-Mexico border.

"I strongly believe that the right to bear arms is an important safeguard against potential tyranny of government..."

Very good!

He supports "tight background checks" for all gun sales and limiting sales of assault weapons to people in special circumstances, like gun range owners, or people who live in a "high risk location, like gang warfare."

This assertion directly contradicts his first one.

We need to educate the man.

Elon, what the left commonly calls "assault weapons" are EXACTLY the kind of arms a population needs to "safeguard against potential tyranny of government". Bowing to the left like this will get you ZERO support from them.

Do not presume to determine what I can own to protect my family from predators and tyrants.

He has a 3 bedroom ranch in Boca Chica for when his kids are in town. When it’s just him, he has a “tiny house” at starbase built by “Boxabl”, a tiny house startup he owns. When he’s on the west coast he couch surfs at his friend’s houses.

"One of the ordinary modes, by which tyrants accomplish their purposes without resistance is by disarming the people, and making it an offense to keep and bear arms."

“Elon Musk Chooses Sides on Gun Control Debate”

What a ridiculous post!

There is no debate related to gun control in the U.S. anymore. The 2nd Amendment to the U.S. Constitution is long-standing settled law and final related to all opinion to this for all times! Anyone can comment on their personal opinion, but it does not change reality, and certainly not the U.S. Constitution or GOD given natural rights!

Well, most people that just switched their registration to Republican like a month ago say some dumb stuff. We should send him some Rush Limbaugh compilations to help get him up to speed.

What do you use to fight the massive amounts of wild hogs in Texas? Air rifles?

Why is the media doing exactly what the mass murderers want?” Musk asked.

If you haven’t figured it out yet, the media is not a friend of a free society.

“Regarding recent events, the shooters are obviously doing this to generate the most amount of attention possible. Why is the media doing exactly what the mass murderers want?” Musk asked.

Good question. I wonder if he already knows the answer?

I have a special circumstance, Elon. I’m an American and I was born a free man.

I am sure he knows.

Asking a question to which you already know the answer is a technique used by many people. The most obvious are cops, trial lawyers and teachers.

The method traps the wicked but it also gets good people to think for themselves.

Shrinks use it to get patients to think through their problems.

"high risk location, like gang warfare."

Would that include gang members?
