   > suicide
   yes, that's the majority shareholder of gun deaths in the USA. you will convince zero gun owners to give up their guns because people are sad and we refuse to help them as a society.

     @icedquinn @mike805 @freemo gun owners who defend availability of high capacity automatic weapons without regulation can believe whatever they want. But we should stop being polite and call their death cult for what it is: a profiteering racket that values dollars and selfish toys over the lives of children.

     @freemo @lmrocha @icedquinn @mike805 well there are plenty of modified and black market guns with full auto capabilities, but they aren't legal under current law (although I'd argue they should be). It actually kind of highlights the problem with trying to regulate them in the first place. They haven't gotten rid of the ability for a person to sling a lot of bullets in a single direction quickly. They've just made it so that otherwise law abiding citizens don't have access to the same weapons as people less concerned with following the law.

     @lmrocha

     Please dont take this personal, but you are really comming across as uneducated on the topic with many of your comments, especially this one... Automatic weapons have been banned at a state and federal level for a very long time now (I think 60s or 70s).... There are no automatic weapons on the streets to worry about aside from a very rare few antiques.

     @freemo @icedquinn @mike805 @lmrocha if we're going to ban things that can be used for [self] harm we'll have nothing left.

     @icedquinn

     I strongly support better access to mental health. Hell I wouldnt even mind taxing guns such that the tax pays for some of that mental health access.

     That said I also beleive in bodily autonomy and that means the absolute right to suicide and not making the effort to block access to something on the basis that it can be used for suicide... if someone wants to kill themselves with a gun, that is their fundamental right, its their body.

     @thatguyoverthere

     The fact that you can make a fully automatic gun in a few hours out of scrap parts, or 3d print one dmakes the whole gun control argument very moot, but thats a separate issue.
