Hurray! Now mentally unstable people can get firearms again!!! Not that there aren't plenty of them already, but fuck. Seriously?
I have never
understood the obsession. I get that people like guns, and like to shoot guns.
I have one, and used to target shoot and hunt in Arizona. And I trained with
them, carried them, and used them in the military. But…I’m not frothing at the mouth to make
sure that every crazy son of a bitch in the country can get them with no checks
and balances. There’s a measure of common
sense that needs to be applied here, but there’s just too much money flowing
from lobbyists to politicians’ pockets for that to ever happen.
If people put a
fraction of the energy they expend obsessing over guns helping the poor or
contributing to society, we’d have a better damned place to live. They’ll realize that when they’re on their
death beds I suppose, when none of that shit will matter at all…just the people
they love and will miss.
Here in Texas, they’re
entertaining doing away with all licensing requirements for concealed or open
carry, so it’ll soon be easier to get and carry a firearm than it will to be
legally allowed to cut hair or open a day care business. There’s something really fuckin’ wrong with that.
