@critialcloudkicker Firearms have been illegally manufactured with crude tools for years in Pakistan's Khyber Pass region. The unfortunate truth of the matter is that criminals are always going to find a way to get arms.

@critialcloudkicker Happy Birthday, then! I guess there really is always a reason to party.

@critialcloudkicker The Swiss are conscripted into mandatory military service, and I believe they are regularly required to requalify in marksmanship tests. Granted, the Swiss don't have a belligerent foreign policy as the US does (I am not against conscription in principle). It would be nice to see a less belligerent "Swiss" approach over here. Even without conscription, it would be nice to see people enroll in gun training, safety, etc.

@critialcloudkicker The design is based off the civil war era Gatling guns.

@critialcloudkicker I have a design for a three-barreled one, but not fifteen, hand-cranked, drum fed, shorten the barrels and it would fit in a backpack... have I ever mentioned that I design crazy mango when I'm really bored?
-
@critialcloudkicker Either way, the point I was initially trying to make was that they can regulate everything to hell and gone, but if people want to arm themselves they'll find a way to do it, legal or otherwise, hell, give me half an hour in a Home Depot and I can whip up a 40mm grenade launcher, it wont be pretty but it'll work, if you can find rounds for it.

@critialcloudkicker I made something for someone that wanted to keep snakes out of his back yard... at what point did I even hint at opening up on a movie theater or anything even remotely like that?

@critialcloudkicker @colfax pump action . . . of automatic shotgun? Where is this world you live ?!
-
@critialcloudkicker I made it about 10 inches long and it seemed to work just fine, it's not as though it was going to be used for hunting or anything like that.
-
@critialcloudkicker Yeah... I know...
-
@critialcloudkicker barrels are easy to put together, hells, I once made a case hardened sleeve for a plastic flare gun you can buy at walmart that would let you run regular shotgun shells through it

@critialcloudkicker It reminds me of the German word "dumpf" which means dull http://dict.leo.org/ende/index_de.html#/search=dumpf

@critialcloudkicker 3D printed guns are already happening.

@critialcloudkicker I saw that episode. According to their research Donald Trump's family name was Drumpf before it was changed.
-
@critialcloudkicker Goodnight. :)
-
@critialcloudkicker That's odd. Excessive litigation isn't always required to get such paranoia to spread.
-
@critialcloudkicker The mentally defective, felons, etc. are already prohibited from owning firearms per US federal law. While I don't believe that domestic abusers, violent felons, etc. can be trusted with firearms, they can still find illegal ways to acquire them if they are determined enough. It is illegal to knowingly lie on a Form 4473 (ATF NICS background check). However, those who do as such are rarely prosecuted. That needs to change. Additionally, I don't think it would hurt for us to become a bit more "Swiss" and have mandatory firearm training. Income inequality and a lack of access to quality healthcare (including the mental type) are serious issues as well.

@critialcloudkicker Good night man
-
@critialcloudkicker Regardless of the reasons why violent crime in the US has been dropping, the fact is that guns don't cause such crime; Feinstein, Obama, et. al. have no logical case for a gun ban (aside from the viewpoint of an oligarchy not wanting those they exploit to have guns). If people want to restrict my access to arms, they need to bring some evidence to the table. I don't trust a capitalist oligarchy to decide who gets to have guns and who doesn't get to have them.

@critialcloudkicker Hm. No lawsuits, but still morbid paranoia and lots of public screaming and such.
-
@critialcloudkicker I personally prefer (and practice) concealed carry. If I had to use a firearm in self-defense, I would prefer the assailant not to know about me carrying it until it is already pointed at him. The increased gun sales thing is due to the NRA: they intentionally spread panic about a gun ban that isn't likely to happen in order to get more money for themselves (more dues paying members) and the manufacturers on whose behalf they lobby (more demand = higher prices). Interestingly, US crime rates have been dropping in spite of more people carrying guns.

@critialcloudkicker Rage me friend... Rage

@critialcloudkicker I'll be honest with you and tell you that I know nothing at all about the topic other than trump memes. I only look at international and national politics, I don't pay much attention to inside affairs of other countries.
-
@critialcloudkicker It's what I call it myself. Padding on playgrounds, excessive worry over not "offending" anyone, all those things. A paranoic take on preventing any sort of damage, even the silly minor damages like a bruised knee or hurt ego. In turn, preventing people from getting actually strong and ready to deal with the real world.

@critialcloudkicker Bubble wrap mentality is what happened. One of the worst things of this century.
