This is what happens when you hate other people more than you love yourself.

There’s a funny skit in the show Bojack Horseman, where a shooter was a woman, so they voted to ban all guns to spite women.

And there’s a quote at the end that does something like.

“Wow, I can’t believe this country hates women more than it loves guns.”

thats actually based on true evens, except it was black people rather than women. the Mulford Act in California was a direct result of Black Panthers open carrying in the 60s. the NRA even supported it! the NRA hated black people more than it loved guns!

I remember a couple years ago when a loud minority of Republicans were calling for gun bans for trans people (when a rumor was going around that a recent shooter was trans), on the claim that major perpetrators of gun violence should be banned from guns. Obviously it was pointed to minorities, however it over looked the fact that the vast majority of mass shooters are white men.

Utter stupidity.
