"open source defense"? Disgusting. I have a friend in #norway who is part of the military and always a good point about #american obsession with #guns. In the #EU gun ownership is NOT a right. It's very expensive. Very. But, you are PAYING other people to play with guns on your behalf (unless you're Finnish). That's their JOB. If you want to be a "professional citizen" then...get paid to do it...in the #miltary. Stop pretending. They also don't get "bootlicking" #news

The New York Times · Gun Owners Are Preparing for When All Hell Breaks LooseBy Thomas Gibbons-Neff

California folks:

Your Assemblymember is going to be voting on AB 1127 to ban the sale of dangerous convertible pistols that can be turned into DIY machine guns.

Glock, the multibillion dollar gun manufacturer, refuses to design their firearms so that a person can't turn them into DIY machine guns.
Instead, the company’s pistols can be converted into machine guns with just one simple step—adding a tiny piece of plastic called a Glock switch.

Give your Assemblymember a call.
Tell them to vote YES on AB 1127.

"I wish white Christian Conservatives had the same passion for migrant children, school shooting victims, sick toddlers, young black men, Muslim families, LGBTQ teens, the environment, and women's autonomy over their bodies that they claim to have for embryos."
