    No I fully support the constitution and wish the amendments were universal human rights, not just American rights.

      A populace with the ability to kill anyone with the press of a button isn’t free or safe - it’s fearful, which is a dangerous thing to be when you have a gun.

      Gestures lazily at gun deaths per capita compared to the rest of the developed world.

      There’s also the 13th - Slavery is fine so long as we criminalise you. Why the fuck would you want this, exactly?

      Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.

      The deification of the founding fathers - a bunch of slave owners and the like is deeply weird. They had some good ideas… and some atrocious ones.

      So you want more deaths in the world?

      Well I don’t.

      Any country where you need a gun in order to feel safe is a shithole.

        Weird flex but ok. I suppose if you are privileged enough to stay in a country with no violence you should probably stay there.

        For everyone else, we like our rights to self defense.

      No thanks. You can keep your constitution. Ours isn’t perfect either, but I prefer it to yours.
