for all the guns americans have, theyre clearly too cowardly to use them for anything outside of school shootings

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Exactly. Just shows you what a bunch of pussies they really are. I’d kick so much ass in an elementary or middle school. i wouldn’t even need a gun.

Does your mom know you're talking to strangers online?

[–] [email protected] 23 points 2 days ago

I dunno. Ask her when you’re done with her.

You don't get to watch our local news reports. Plenty of people get smoked every single day by gunfire. Fuck someone's wife , cut them off in traffic , call them a snitch ,bump into them in a bar, throw snow from your driveway onto theirs 💥💥💥. It could be anything that gets a bunch of new holes added to your meat suit

Sure but they all whine they need them for incase government be bad. Now we have a situation and they are all quiet. The only reason Americans need guns is to make the small minded can't see their own penis men fell powerful. I have never once in my life thought I sure would feel safer with a gun. Ok maybe but not in the city.

Is that supposed to prove Americans are not a bunch of cowards? Because it does the opposite.

My bad thought you were French or something /s

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

No worries! I did almost become Spanish for a year. But, had to put that aside for now.

There was the one guy who tried to snipe the orange man at a rally, so there was that.

Are you just ignoring all the instances where this statement isn't true or do those not count because two guys you don't like are still alive?

I'm assuming you're saying this because no one has killed Trump or Musk yet. That's sort of nonsensical considering the former has had at least two attempts on his life in the last year. Important people get shot at on a fairly regular basis in America.

The first one wasn't a real attempt. It was for the photo OP
