I'm pro using torts to make everyone in the chain of a gun tragedy pay for their externalities. Didn't secure your gun and got it negligently stolen and someone was killed? That'll be bankruptcy. Marketed something you knew would kill someone unlawfully? Good luck staying in business friend.

It'd be interesting if folks had to pay for the real cost of gun ownership.

It's ok you can call yourself a leftist...

That's me, but I live in a red state, so everyone says I'm far left (to put it nicely).

Same. But I'm also for gun control as well. Like, don't ban them outright, just make them a whole hell of a lot harder to get. Like really hard. I live in an area that has bobcats, bears, and the occasional mountain lion. I own a pistol to protect myself and my critters (a flock of ducks and two dogs) in case of an attack. I don't want to use it and it won't kill a big predator like a bear or mountain lion, but I only want it to scare the animals off if they get too close. It hasn't left the locked drawer I keep it in since I bought my house in 2022. I'm hoping it'll never have to come out.

Yup that's me. No major party has all 3.

Sigh
