    So I’m understanding correctly - 1 million people got guns that would have been denied, or 1 million checks failed, and we don’t know how many of those would have been denied?

    My guess would be gun checks work like this…

    Is the person white? Approved

    End of background check

    Every day I’m tempted to go into bass pro or fleet farm and just see what I can walk out the door with, and how little I have to tell them.

    The only gun that I currently own was a prize I won at a union sportsman’s association dinner (my dad and uncle are officers in the local and have to fill tables). Each table of 8-10 had a drawing for a gun and a cooler. I got the rifle. I just had to take a voucher to Scheels gun counter the next morning and they handed over a rifle. Haven’t put a round through it.

    What a time to be alive when your kid potentially avoided being killed in a mass shooting because he was home with a global pandemic-related illness.

    Well, if we’re just going to be a country of shitty assholes carrying guns and killing shittier assholes who shoot up places, what the fuck is the point of having police that use up half of city budgets? Just have every person (white person of course) a gun and be Dodge fucking City.

    Ise that money for homelessness or mental health issues. I hope you don’t think I am coming at you, but I’m mentally preparing my brain for this shit show.
