    America will sooner defund literature, arts and the humanities to divert money to teaching kids how to Zerg rush an armed shooter (this also counts as Phys Ed) before they enact gun control

      before they enact gun control

      And last I checked, gun control in america has historically always been about keeping guns out of the hands of anyone that isn’t white.

        ???

        We had plenty of guns here in China due to the fact that we, uhh, invented gunpowder.

        Between the Warlord era and liberation, guns weren’t exactly rare. And yet today I am looking through the news and I do not see any gun violence here. Not in my city of Wuhan, not in my province of Hubei, not in the entire PRC.

        Perhaps you need to have a revolution first, but it’s not “stupid unless you never had guns in the first place”
