*sigh* MORE distractions.
a week ago
Karno's Rare-Because-He-Never-Has-Time Blather:
I was tempted to click on an article in Daily Kos that claimed "The MAGAs find a gun control law they like". Seems someone, somewhere deep in the DOJ bureaucracy, was caught on a hot mic wondering if it would be possible to ban Trans people from gun ownership. And since all True Believers know gun owners are racist trans-haters, the article condescendingly assumed we'd be all for this.
But in the real world, the answer came back pretty quick: Oh HELL no!
https://reason.com/2025/09/06/major.....m-owning-guns/
Quotes: "But as Reason's Jacob Sullum wrote, the idea is "legally loony." There is no statutory authority for such a categorical decree. Even if Congress did pass such a law, it would be unconstitutional based on current Supreme Court precedent and prevailing circuit court opinions. If the Trump administration was hoping to get a pass from gun-rights groups over these small details, it will be disappointed. Categorical bans—issued by executive fiat no less—have been a red line for pro-Second Amendment groups and lawmakers for decades.
"The NRA supports the Second Amendment rights of all law-abiding Americans to purchase, possess and use firearms," the organization posted Friday on X. "The NRA does not, and will not, support any policy proposals that implement sweeping gun bans that arbitrarily strip law-abiding citizens of their Second Amendment rights without due process."
Pretty much every gun group that's heard of this nonsense has condemned it:
"Stephen Gutowski, an independent journalist covering gun rights and the gun industry, reported that the NRA wasn't alone: "Every major gun-rights group has now spoken against the idea of the DOJ trying to strip trans people of their gun rights en masse," he posted on X Friday.
Gutowski's tally included Gun Owners of America, the Second Amendment Foundation, the Firearms Policy Coalition, the National Association for Gun Rights, and the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms."
It seems not everyone has forgotten what usually happens to minority groups after the government forcefully disarms them. This moronic Nazi bullshit will never fly. But it seems that whispering the idea of such nonsense to "influencers" makes a good distraction. Looka me, wasting several minutes of good typing time on it.

Next week it'll be aliens, or possibly trans aliens to distract from it.

-Never mind, no doubt you will. Go ahead.
Let them cook.
This latest gush of bullshit *is* a distraction, yes. But it's also got the very handy side effect of pushing a LOT of people who were, or may have been, opposed to gun ownership, into seeing the light and buying guns.
And from what I've been seeing so far, having been opposed to gun ownership has had a rather interesting effect on their choices? They're getting training and buying decent safes! I mean, sure, it's probably stems from being afraid of the guns, which isn't good? But proper training will fix that, and you can NEVER go wrong in keeping your weapons properly secured.
If I were to say, no guns for trans, then what’s to stop someone else from saying no guns for atheists? Or no guns for the poor?
I’ve made the same argument on some of the gun forums I’m on.
You can’t simply lump any group in with the outliers of that group.
As far as trans being a “mental illness” as some suggest as being the crux for this idea;
That is not up to the courts, or worse a single judge who may be biased, to assert.
We need to bring back mental healthcare in this country, and once mental health care professionals have diagnosed someone with a psychiatric disorder, then and only then could the courts get involved and potentially adjudicate them as having a mental illness and not capable of the responsibility of firearms ownership.
Our current system of feed them a pill and put them back on the streets is only amplifying the problem.
As for the other part, I call BS., even though I don't care what one wants to think that they might want to be. People are probably going to look weird at me because I like to sleep with a plush animal, but it's not bringing any harm to others.
Before you say that I'm some sort of phobe, maybe you should look up what that word really means. How ever if we go by your rules, I know trans who are homophobes and have attacked me for it. As for being an uncle who has a nephew who is trans, I'm hoping that we can learn from each other.
Personally, I don't give a Rats-Ass of what one wants to be. Two each their own as long as they are going around shoving in others faces. I don't like when trance activist have a narcissistic view that we should respect them, and many in return don't respect others.

The shooter at the Annunciation Catholic Church arrived to find the door locked, so they shot from outside. They fired over a hundred shells from an AR 15.
Do you REALLY think that they could have wounded and killed so many people in any other way? Of fucking COURSE it had everything to do with the gun. These weapons enable people to carry out massacres on a military scale It's only luck that prevented many more people from being killed.
HRT doesn't make anyone "Drugged up" and it doesn't make trans people more aggressive or violent.
Of course I know the meaning of phobia, but you're ignoring the meanings that transphobia has gained through years of common use, which go beyond fear to meaning hate and lack of understanding. You clearly don't understand what it means to be trans. You are indeed a transphobe.
I've hidden absolutely nothing. I only added to my OP beyond the original five minute edit window to correct a small error and make a short addition.
There is a point and time that it's no longer worth kicking a dead horse with someone that always thinks that they are always right.
End Of Line.
You've yet to make a single convincing argument against a single thing I've said.
The tic shit that called me a racist and a fascist chimed in!
No real surprise here!
Did you even read my reply or are you really just that ignorant?
I think that he is just one that likes to stir up shit. I also think you can add arrogant with ignorant.
Of course I read -And Understood- everything you said there.
I was ready to agree with you until I stumbled over your transphobic statement.
When you say racist shit like "Aloha snackbar", just how do you expect anybody to regard you as anything BUT a racist?
When you support the military occupation of American cities, just how do you expect anybodt to regard you as anything BUT a fascist?
You're obviously ignorant when you say and believe such things, and hateful to boot with your views towards migrants here.
You and your immature brain had to get that last word in by calling me a racist and fascist.
I said I wouldn’t reply, not that I wouldn’t read
Aloha snackbar isn’t exactly racist you low reading comprehension tic turd, Islam covers the entire globe at this point, every single ethnic group has to some extent been folded into that belief system.
So, how is insulting a religion with that ethnic background racist?
I support law and order, not freebies and giveaways. That makes me a fascist?
But you who would tell me i can’t have guns because your friend used one to off themselves isn’t in fact fascism?
You claimed at the time that you couldn't read my comments. This is now just clearly a lie.
"How is insulting a religion with that ethnic background racist?"
-Are you REALLY this clueless?
You're not supporting "Law and order" That's not what Drumpf is doing. What he IS doing is only too clearly fascist.
Nobody here is getting undue "Freebies and Giveaways". Our erconomy will tank without the work of migrants, who mostly have more right to be here than you do. They're not "Taking our jerbs". They're just trying to make better lives for themselves and building our economy. We all only benefit from this.
I never said that you "Can't have guns", no matter how many times you repeat that tired refrain.
So not only are you denying my generational citizenship, but your supporting slavery at the same time!
Wow!
America was established as an independent country in 1776.
My family came here legally per the laws of the time in the early 1800s, at least 5 generations that I’m aware of born and bred American citizens.
I have every right to work in this country you bigot.
Your people stole this land from the indigenous people who were here for what, according to the latests science, has been for some twenty to fifty thousand years.
You were the one who brought up indigenous lines and continued to beat that drum!
So, please deport yourself and stop trying to live my life for me!
You said nothing as per your existence, an overgrown nothingburger
Just how dense are you?
Hypocrisy is the language of the left though so I can’t say I’m surprised
This is growing rather tiring.
Exhausting?
Yes you are!
If you don't like it here, then move... but you have to prove some worth other than collecting dust in Mom's basement.
And "America, love it or leave it".
-gee, where have I heard that one before? -Oh yeah, back during the American war on Vietnam. over a half a century ago.
My parents have been dead for years at this point.
I also bet you have heard it many times, because of the way that you come off.
I have other things to do that I feel needs my attention like spending time with my critters, artwork, working on my computers, chatting to my buds, and... well I won't talk about the last part because it was something a little crazy that I'm not willing to talk about yet, but I'm sure you will find it on my page one of these day. I was hopping it to be a surprise for a good friend of mine, but I don't think it wants it, so I'll just keep it to my self.
OK, I like to collect electronic stuff.
End Of Line.
I don't find myself particularly inclined towards looking at your page.
I never asked you personally to look at my page, that was just something I write generally because I talk to a lot of people at times. I don't give a rats ass weather or not if you want to look at my stuff, it's all up to you, but I'm willing to bet that you are going to be sneaking peeks.
For the most part I find you amusing, but cause you have no clue what the hell you are babbling about other than to just run off at the head. It's seems like it's a hobby that you like to do to a lot of people as some weird kick to try to hack them off. To me you come across as a very miserable angry person.
Just how was I supposed to know that that wasn't an instruction to look at your page?
I don't find you amusing, I find you completely laughable due to your being completely unable to mount a single cogent argument to defend yourself.
My reply to you per site rules means I’m about to be banned….
As I tell sic, you are in fact the fascist here.
Grow a spine snowflake
You're just flogging a dead horse with that one.
I’m certain I’ve missed loads of your little quips to yourself, and I couldn’t much care.
You’re a useless person, just a bullhorn of fake outrage.
You don’t have a point, you’re a joke with no punchline.
Get help, like serious professional psychiatric help.
Bullshit you haven't read everything I've written.
Absolutely none of my "Outrage" is fake.
Idiot
Isn’t it though?
Idiot
The above is a prime example of the gradeschool level of your discourse.
Simply wow.
Simply wow."
See above. You've got nothing.
It's rather sad that you appear to have such a hard time following a thread..
You’re a coward hiding behind every shield you can find.
Take a break from the interwebs, go touch grass,…
Please get professional help
Bet I touch way more grass than you do. All you've got is tired cliches like that. You're completely disconnected from objective reality.
As a home owner, I doubt you’ve seen as much grass as I maintain on a daily basis.
Get help
I don't need any help. Your saying so repeatedly also means absolutely nothing.
Denial.
Get help dude, you’re gonna hurt yourself or worse hurt others in some vain attempt to justify yourself.
No matter how many times you may repeat that shit, it'll never happen.
Those migrants who are effectively slaves do not benefit in any humane way.
While I fully support their earning equivalent wages that the the few of us gringos willing or capable of doing the same work would demand, They're nonetheless willing to do this work because it's better than the opportunitioes open to hem in the countries that they were driven out of due to US policies towards those countries.
Did it for the same wages paid to the “migrants” you consider less than you.
I’m as white as white gets! Yet I’ve done those jobs…
You think any job is below you?
That makes you the racist,
You think you are superior to anyone else,
That makes you fascist.
This is also you just dodging my point and attempting to insult me.
The ones who jump the border and scream asylum like your Maryland dad MS-13 wife abuser/human trafficker/drug dealer/suspected kiddy porn aficionado…..
He’s got a right to be here and not me and my tax paying self?
This is what you choose?
Cant say I'm particularly surprise4d to see you parroting the fascist party line on that, though.
The story of his having been a "Human trafficker/drug dealer/suspected kiddy porn aficionado" was only too clearly clearly just manufactured by the Drumpf regime.
These people didn't cross the border, The border crossed them.
1000% human smuggling.
“ These people didn't cross the border, The border crossed them.”
So you believe in open borders.
Gotcha, I’m beginning to draw a better picture of who you are.
Yes, I do. Though even the Dems don't.
We as as society do not need foreign slaves to make life happen.
Crops are ALREADY going unpicked, and this crisis will only grow worse, increase the prices of fruits and vegetables, and decrease their availability..
Get your privileged ass out there and harvest those crops!
-No doubt you'll provide me with yet more examples...
I mean, up until Trump's second election most progressives were decent enough to say that they were opposed to corporations relying on illegal immigrants to get away with violating minimum wage AND every other hard won worker safeguard achieved by American labor. Most progressives would have said that they were more interested in seeing an end to the CIA and State department's undermining of central and south American governments and economies, and that what was really needed was a raise in the minimum wage and a focus on corporate "greedflation."
But here you are, ranting about the dearth of impoverished hispanics being sent north to work the fields under horrific conditions, because you want cheap fruits and marijuana.
(emphasis: marijuana. Californian cannabis farms have been raided by ICE... where CHILDREN were being made to work the fields)
I can only assume that you're just selectively acknowledging what I've written here.
I've already discussed this.
Go ahead, ask him.
"Bullshit im brown and you assholes dont do the dirty jobs get of our land . Signed round and brown native whos ancestors were here before you twats got pissed over tea"
What couger said was not addressed towards me. It was addressed to Zerrinth.
Of course not. You're just that dense and willfully obstinate, even when you're clearly wrong.
How does that in any way justify the genocide of Palestinians that we're all watching unfold every day before our eyes?
You're only continuing to make yourself look like a fool.
Just a tad ironic...
Because this was the last time you tried to have a point?
I’ve explained how “aloha snackbar” isn’t racist as it calls out multi racial religious beliefs not individual races…
I’ve explained how enforcing law and order is justice and not fascism.
Yet you are too daft to reconcile what I’ve said?
Get help dude.
I've already explained what a problem this already is and increasingly will be.
Promoting slavery and human trafficking is good for our country?
And I’m the backwards fascist,… gotcha! 🙄✌️
As a matter of fact I said that I think that they deserve the same wage that any American worker would demand, provided that they were even willing or able to do the same job.
Do you even know what "Defund the police" even means?
It means spending a portion of the money allotted to policing upstream of policing on programs that are actually proven to be effective at crime prevention, as opposed to downstream on policing, which has repeatedly been proven to be completely ineffective at actually preventing crime.
I'm still using a fliphone. Nobody's gonna rip that off.
I was perfectly clear with what I wrote.
Getting criminals off the streets is good. Preventing people from becoming criminals in the first place is better. Better education, increased economic opportunities, and more positive social environments are indeed proven to be far more effective at reducing crime than letting cops cosplay as Judge Dredd (in fact, the whole "let cops be Dirty Harry" thing was already thoroughly debunked decades ago, with LAPD'S C.R.A.S.H. unit).
And personally I would never call the cops. Because every time I've asked the police for assistance they have made it clear they literally could not care less. That includes last year, when three small children were in extreme danger and the two responding officers pretty much just yawned and drove away. I have a very low opinion of U.S. police - and it's an opinion they've thoroughly earned.
Everyone who's against Israels's genocide of the Palestinians and their slaughter of children is a Hamas supporter and Jew hater...
You'll never convince anyone of anything as long as you keep denying that the Israelis are committing a genocide and starving people in Gaza, including the hostages in the tunnels.
We're all watching it unfold every day.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=th67N9gEHes
Meanwhile, the evacuation of Gaza City has begun... oh no, that means no more human shields for your friends to hide behind, Hamas supporter Sikfock!
Did you even read what I wrote? Many of the people of Gaza city are either refusing to evacuate or unable to. Only a fraction of them have left. There's no safe place with enough resources to survive for them to evacuate to where they won't be killed anyway.
But Israel doesn't care. They'll just slaughter them anyway, It's all part of their plan to ethnically cleanse every Palestrinian from Gaza, genocidaire Archone.
"Bombs Away! Israel Just TOOK OUT The Entire Hamas Leadership In Qatar"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmdNr7-q5kM
So sad, too bad, those "heroes" you love, the ones who've been sipping iced drinks while the Gazans suffer to justify your hate, just got blown to bits! HAHAHAHAHA!
Israel illegally attacked a compound in Qatar, where Hamas's negotiators probably live, not caring if innocent people may also be killed as well. . Real cool move, Israel. Of course you'd laugh at that.
It's still not clear whether they managed to kill anyone or not, Child murderer Archone.
Anyway, bored now. Go ahead and rant some more about how everything is "illegal" or "genocidal," if you want. I've got better things to do than continue the feedback loop.
International law did.
But of course you don't care about that.
I see you know when you're licked.
Luckily it won't make any difference, because some of them are already here and the rest can participate via computer video connections.
Even fucking Drumpf is against this illegal strike on a sovereign country from Israel, murderer Archone.
The sixth was a Qatari government official, causing an international incident.
https://www.democracynow.org/2025/9.....e_negotiations
Not only didn't they manage to "Take out the entire Hamas leadership in Qatar", Israel supporter Archone, They managed to piss off the rest of the world by being a rogue terrorist state even more than they're already pissed at them for the wholesale genocide and starvation that they're imposing on Gaza.
Loads of context below!
You make our entire community look bad! (Furries)
Please get help
Fuck off then.
Stop replying to me
Neither of which you seem to understand!
Maybe I should post it?
Fuck
The
Hell
Off!
😉✌️😎
Seriously get a fucking clue.
I think that there is some reverse psychology going on. Mark my words that those who were bosting about gun control are now going to be gripping about it. Biden and Trump could do the same thing, but you are going to have those that take sides. So I'm sure that someone left of the fence is going to come up with a new one that holloween should be banned because pumkins are orange.
One of my best friends swing way left, and they know that I swing more to the right. "I know, a gay person who isn't on the left side of the fence, and I could write a whole thing about it. I consider myself a moderate. When we are together we just don't talk politics, and sometimes it does slip in but is usually stops when we realize that it turns political. Even with in politics, not all lefties are going to think the same just like all righties are going to think the same.
Definitely a people watcher.
I’ve got a flaming gay coworker, great guy! Love him (not in that way, I’m straight thanks) total gun nut and right leaning even dare I say MAGA supporter.
My BIL is heavily left leaning,… him I can’t talk to, at least not directly. My sister (school teacher) is also left leaning, however she much like myself is more centrist so we get along well.
Simpfuksatan however, is a full blown troll. So I apologize for what is likely to happen with him.
If it's not obvious to you by now that I'm not, that's completely on you.
I'm WAY more serious and believable than the dreck you post.
He's a pro at tossing a petard into the chat and mostly just vsitting back and watching the resulting mayhem.
And being able to fight and shoot, especially from a self-defense perspective, is something anyone can do, regardless of demographic. If anything, it's something anyone should learn to do.
Which would be its own amusement.
My point? Even if by some looney twist of the law they banned trans people from owning guns, they would all still be able to get them if they wanted to, and to be honest, might be encouraged to get some after a law like that was passed, as it would suggest some upcoming violence.
