    I'm for the victim having access to a firearm and the abuser being legally barred from access to a firearm. If he or she breaks that law he can have more charges tact on to him making his or her sentencing longer and therefore less of a threat.

    Many good reasons to bar domestic abusers from a firearm.

    You didn't answer my question. Does a firearm safety class help with mental health issues that a domestic abuser might have?

    No it doesn't but keeping a firearm away from a victim is not exactly helping them. The problem with someone who has a mental issue is not a gun, its the mental issue. If they are violent they will act one way or another.

    Are you just speaking over me?

    It's very simple. If you have a criminal record of domestic abuse, you should be barred from purchasing a firearm and any firearms you currently own should be confiscated. How does that bar a victim of abuse to not be able to purchase a firearm is beyond me.


    This is why having all states force federal background checks for private sales is a must.

    I don't want to restrict access to firearms to someone who has no criminal history of domestic abuse. Does that apply to you? I don't know but ill assume it doesn't.
    Okay..... Then what is your concern? Do you have a domestic abuse incident on your record?

    Johnathan Willis, one of the LEO snipers on the rooftop just basically said this is an insider job. He had the shooter in plain sight for more than 3 minutes and requested to take a shot, but was told to stand down by the head of SS. There will be some explaining by this government which we all know went after Trump with the kitchen sink and never tried to protect him properly.

    If this is found to be true, that's pretty damning.

    If there was a targeted assassination attempt from people with political clout I'd have to imagine it's internal GOP politic civil war.


    No Democrat wants a targeted assassination attempt on Trump. All that does is generate sympathy for the GOP.

    It’s coming from 4chan reportedly.

    I would take it with a grain of salt.

    if you can get that guy on a news site or a reputed place then woah.

    If it were true though, it would probably be out by now. Too many people locked in to those radios for it to not slip. State police would have been on the SS radio too.

    Jan 6th happens: The right, "this is a setup, not really real!". The left, "it's completely real, terrible moment for America. He tried to overthrow the government!"

    Assassination Attempt on Trump happens: The left, "this is a setup, not really real!". The right, "it's completely real, terrible moment for America. Threat to demoracy, trying to eliminate political opponents!"

    It's ironic right? It's been getting crazier. Who knows what is going to happen?

    I agree with you that it is getting crazier. However; I trust my own eyes and ears like we all know that Biden has something something for a few years now but they gaslit us to think that he’s A ok. What I have seen so far does not add up. Shooter up on the rooftop spotted by many people on the ground and were reported to LEOs and they did nothing? Let say that the story about the sniper Johnathan Willis is real and verifiable. We have a world of shiit on our hands.

    The left is saying it's a set up?

    Dude, every president has had an assassination attempt on them, some more successful than others. A single assassination attempt doesn't say much about a country.


    A president convincing 40% of the electorate that our basic vote counting system is fake news is unprecedented.

    Don't both sides this. Don't be an idiot.

    From the first page of this thread...

    A lot of people don't believe he was really shot. "he was in WWF, probably cut his own ear" kind of stuff. It's wild.

    I also don't believe every president has an assassination attempt. Got a link to any of the older ones? It's a pretty big deal.

    Every president has had an assassination attempt. Most stop at the front door of the potential assasin's house as the FBI does a good job of this stuff.


    No one single human attempting an assassination attempt says anything about the stet rof rhetoric in a country. Because no matter what level the political discourse is in a country of 300+ million humans there will always be one random line wolf guy who wants to merc some politicians. This is a constant aspect of reality regardless of who the president is.


    Convincing 2/5ths of the Americans population that our vote counting is fake news is unrivaled, unique and near unprecedented. So from here on out every election the GOP loses, we will have violent back and forth about whether the vote counts are fake news. That is entirely different than some random loner attempting to merc a politician.
