"Ban all guns"
You fucking can't, because anyone with ill intent can get a gun illegally even with the 2nd amendment abolished.
but less of them would happen, which is the whole point
nobody would be so retarded to argue that "banning all guns" would stop every shooting ever
the point is that it becomes much more difficult for shooters, which is better than absolutely nothing
It would be like Mexico where only criminals and cops have guns.
good

well i guess it's okay, as long as it's a different company

tbh fam I'v been countering everyone who uses the "you can buy a rifle but not a beer" argument irl by agreeing that it's absurd and saying that we need to lower our drinking age to 18 like the rest of the developed world. It either ends the conversation or derails it totally away from guns.
wait, do people really use that argument in contexts other than "we ought to lower the drinking age"

People who will want to commit a mass shooting will still do it, and it will happen a lot more than it does now. its called the flea market and the black market. No background checks, no test. Just pay cash, and you own a fucking AR-15 or AK47 or hell even a .22 Glock, illegally, and its incredibly easy to do if you have no guilty conscience or morals )
The majority of these young shooters don't strike me as resourceful enough to do this.
and it wouldn't be more or less difficult to do with or without a gun ban, or with added background checks the option to purchase illegal weapons on the black market will always be there regardless of what solutions we implement obviously

Some book pronounced it as the latter and the Americans acquired that.
Also, there is no true way to pronounce "gif". It's respectful towards the creator to pronounce it with a soft "g", though.
The guy who invented the word says it’s Jif
that's what he said

it really seems like you haven't spent any time reading about this subject at all, and are just talking shit like always
It seems like you have no rebuttal at all. There's nothing to read. It's a bullshit term being used by leftists, and it's the same shit "colored" used to be. That was the politically correct term st the time to label all races who are not white. That way of thinking should be obsolete by now.
and it is
because PoC isn't a revival of it, it's an active indictment of it
How is it an indictment when it's the exact same thought process?
how is it the exact same thought process when it is not the exact same thought process
It's just another way to say nonwhite. In what world is using a term like that NOT racist? Just use the person's race. Why is white the standard?
because they're the majority
it's not really a "standard," it just is what it is, i didn't decide that fact
the term obviously doesn't have the same gravitas outside of densely white countries
How does that make lumping everyone together a good thing?
it's not good or bad
its bad bro
yeah america is ruined

It's totally reaching. "Colored" and "people of color" are literally the same thing. learn what a connotation is, and maybe i'll take the time to read the rest of your post

>reaching this hard
By this logic saying "black people" is racist because you say people second and the color first. Fucking lol, the point is to not refer to people like this at all. Unless it's official documentation or a description for a suspect or some shit, what the hell? Why is "nonwhite" even a term? It implies white is the base, default, correct. It's all racist. There's nothing progressive or tolerant about any of this terminology. It's an outdated way of thinking about people.
not reaching at all actually, this is pretty basic stuff if there's one thing i'm always going to know more than you about, it's language nobody is saying the term "black people" is racist, it's just falling by the wayside as a politically correct term i'd still use it because that's what i'm used to, but if it stops being used that way it's not a big deal to me >unless it's official documentation or a description >unless it's being used the way it's always been used well at least you see where you messed up now

there's also a rather obvious difference between using a word like "nigger," which has a lot of baggage
and saying "color" which has no baggage and is relatively benign
"colored" is different because it sounds like an affliction, but "color" is just a benign description of someone's complexion
No shit. The thing is you might as well just call everybody who isn't white niggers if you're just gonna lump everybody together for no reason other than the fact that they aren't white.
"you might as well say nigger because they're the same exact word i mean come on guys"
the difference is that there are good reasons to be offended by words like "nigger" and "colored"
there's no good or sensible reason to be offended by "people of color" because the term was come up with specifically to solve that problem, and if you're genuinely offended by it, then you deserve to be offended by it
Please explain how it's different. It isn't. The intention and thought process is EXACTLY the same. "Nonwhite". Grouping everybody who isn't white together. It's just beating around the bush and sugar coating.
i already explained how it's different, and i shouldn't have to explain why using "nigger" is bad
"nigger" doesn't just mean "nonwhite"
"colored" doesn't just mean "nonwhite"
and there's nothing wrong with being nonwhite, so i'm not sure what your problem is
there's nothing wrong with being nonblack, either, and if "nonblack" became a widespread term i wouldn't care either
Nigger is just a messed up way of saying negro which is black. My problem lies with whites grouping everybody else as "colored" like it's the 1960's and then acting like it's cool and "progressive".
but they're not doing that, because "colored" and "color" fundamentally connote different things, because words are more than what they mean colorED makes it sound like being nonwhite is some kind of affliction or disability, that's what it sounds like "color" connotes nothing, it's just an acknowledgement that people of different races tend to have different skin complexions, but it doesn't have a negative connotation because, again, you're referring to them as people first, and their race second if the two words meant the same exact thing, and had the same exact connotations, then everybody would be on your side your choice to be offended by the term doesn't make the term offensive

trying to come up with a term that'll make everyone happy is a fool's errand anyway
people will choose to be offended no matter what you say
i say, fuck anyone who is unable to view the expression "people of color" as the gesture of respect and politeness that it is
i don't personally use the term because i find it cumbersome, but see no real issue with those who do

it's because the word "people" is being used first and foremost
that's literally the reason
Oh cool I guess I'll just say "nigger people" when I see a group of black people. That makes it ok
no, the word people is being used first so a better analogy would be "people of nigger" if you were gonna make that point
