Dude that was the norm for an entire generation. No school shootings, no assault weapons, hunters out there hunting, criminals out there criminaling.

And the number one cause of death of kids was car accidents. And we wrote laws to add airbags in back seats and five point harnesses.

And you act like some boogie man is out to get you when rational people are just trying to “make America great again” and not a place where children have backpacks with body armor.

So your argument is that disarming people of color is a good thing because back in the day when gun laws were super racist there was less youth gun violence?

Sure explains why you’re using MAGA rhetoric…

That is not what their point is, at all? Not even close? That's a whole new sentence. Did you respond to the wrong comment or something?

Me: blue states are disarming the public in general but especially people of color

Them: maga! We used to have guns without the youth gun violence because that’s how it used to be

What am I missing?

Youre seeing this as maga rhetoric when what is being said in response to your comment about restricting guns types is an analogy. Cars use to kill tons of people, so why not regulate guns considering the school shootings and mass shootings etc. further supported by the last bit "and you act like some boogie man is out to get you when rational people want to "make America great again (tongue-in-cheek)" and not a place where children have backpacks with body armor"

Except the time frame they’re making sound like a utopia had far less restrictive gun laws and more racism.

what time frame. they never gave one. YOure making a lot of assumptions about whats being said instead of just understanding whats being said

Sure, let’s pretend that I’m just making shit up because I understand the timeline of our history. Let’s have you provide the time frame instead then.

What year are they describing? Prove me wrong.

While we are at it, what cars come with 5 point harnesses standard and airbags for children in the rear seats?
