So I had a look at the very exacting process to obtain a pistol license in my state... ...my thesis was, the test is not just a cock-block to be nasty, but it is a psychological test to select only a specific type of individual who can be trusted with a compact firearm. If you reduced it to one sentence; The licensing process selects for people whose default operating mode is patient, orderly, emotionally stable, procedurally compliant, and willing to exchange immediate autonomy for long-term access. Now, look at that list and tell me you don't want your neighbour to have those characterics? Or would you rather have him wave his gun every time leaves blow in from your property? #gun #2a #firearms

So I've looked up the procedure to legally acquire a Pistol #Firearm (#gun) in my state in #Australia . Firearms of any sort are super tightly regulated, we never had a mass murder incident with a pistol, something that happens every afternoon in US (twice on the weekends)

These are the requirements

  1. You have to prove you do not want a pistol

  2. You have to show you need it for a good cause, the only good reason being, taking it out of a gun safe between 3PM and 6PM on a Saturday to look at it.

  3. The police will require your DNA, Brain scan and check your ancestry all the way back to Jesus for any criminality, this being Australia, settled by convicts, no Australian migrant can own one.

  4. Pistol dimensions are strictly regulated, the magazine may not exceed 1 round, and you have to assemble the round before you fire it, by law, with the separate parts of the bullet stored some distance apart, ideally in different municipalities.

  5. The barrel of the pistol may be between 1200mm and 1201mm and of a calibre wider than the round used in the pistol

  6. You need to join a secret society, and pay your firstborn as a due.

  7. For the first 6 years, you can not actually own a gun, instead after you get a permit, you can look at one in the shop.

  8. You have to enroll and graduate from a 3 year full time University Firearms safety and use course.

  9. To maintain your license, you need to attend an official cult, sorry club, competition every weekend (Sat AND Sun)

  10. You have to re-apply for the license every month and will lose it if you do not meet any of the cult, sorry club, competition requirements or are within 500m of a criminal offence being committed.

Apropos that mass shooting in Shreveport, Louisiana referenced above. Eight more innocent victims laid at the altar of the bloodlustful false ghod that is celebrated by adherents of the #2A #USpol #Guns #GunViolence #NRA #Trump #GOP #MAGA #GunControl #USC https://apnews.com/live/louisiana-shooting-2026

Of course, the #GunNuts will condemn the serial murderer as mentally-ill and, by definition, _not_ a #RGO (a Responsible Gun Owner) like them. But they all have summat in common, a fetish for and ownership of (lots of) #Guns. And a warped grievance-collector mindset suited to mass murder. Removing easy access to firearms reduces that risk. Or gun-owners should swear an oath - if they ever begin a shooting spree, they should shoot themselves first. #GunControl #USpol #2A #GOP #MAGA #Trump

Morning, all, despite Two Dolls Donny's tariff extortion attempts and resistance thereto, America still exports something to Canada. Evil ideas aren't halted by 'secure borders' and Canada, the Untied Kingdom and other cultures are threatened by a pincer movement between professional marketeers and political dogma espoused in a twisted interpretation of #2A by #NRA, #GOP and #MAGA. #GunControl #GunNuts #Guns #Trump #TyrantTrump #USpol https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cr5lnzqdr5pt

@z_everson@journa.host @nytimes@mediastodon.com It's almost as if the #Trump administration has done a U-turn on its support for the #2A after realizing the Founders' intent was that its 'well-regulated militia' should protect the American People against just such an oppressive, tyrannical government as the Don's regime is proving to be....

And, #NBC, stop calling him an "Officer." How do you know the masked man who ran off with Alex Pretti's legally-carried gun before the other masked men shot Alex was an #ICE Officer? He was dressed in blue-jeans and a grey cap and coat unadorned with any insignia of rank or affiliation to any agency. #USpol #Trump #GOP #MAGA #TyrantTrump #NoKings #BovineBovino #BossBullshitter #ICEbarbie #ICEcoldKillers #AmericanCoup #EmperorTrump #Krasnov #25A #2A https:// youtu.be/I-eNduwugmY?si=_-oG9i

Alex Pretti was a registered 'concealed carry' gun owner. A mob of masked armed men dressed in a hodgepodge of outfits, even blue-jeans, some but not all emblazoned with 'ICE Agent' or 'Federal Agent' badges, forced him prone, took the pistol he was legally entitled to carry, and executed him. #GOP and #NRA claim #2A is Americans' defence against tyranny. Clearly it's not. Nor did it protect him personally. #MAGA #ICE #Trump #Noem #USpol #TyrantTrump #ICEcoldKillers https://youtu.be/Yr8Fknv-u3o?si=pH1qooUWNhna46kZ

@KimSJ@mastodon.social You're right - mass _peaceful_ protest brings down tyrannical governments (DDR, Romania, Shah's Iran, etc, etc.). But no, we've been told that the #2A much vaunted for years by the #GunNuts was the bulwark defending U.S. democracy against over-reach by an oppressive government. Yet, we've not heard a peep from Gun Nuts, mostly cos they've likely all taken jobs as #ICEcoldKillers! No bad thing - with so many guns on both sides, armed resistance will cost far too many innocent lives.

For a single act - an Afghan asylum seeker shot two National Guards in Washington, DC - President Donald Trump ends processing claims of *all* Afghan asylum seekers. For a single act - an American uses an AR-15 to commit mass-murder in a U.S. school - Don Trumpeone refuses to curb the right of all Americans to walk around with assault weapons. Nothing to see here... No double standards applied... Move on... #CollectivePunishment #USpol #Trump #GOP #MAGA #2A https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c3r7qpqddnro
