Time to bash Americans again
-
Most British schools have bars to keep the kids in.
That's an exarregation, right?
-
Who the fuck emigrates to Europe as a hardcore American fascist? Seriously? What the actual fuck?
It's funny, the fascists "won" here, but they are still expatriating themselves to fuck up other people's countries too.
-
We have plenty of fascists here. It's not like the US have a monopoly. We don't quite let them run the show yet, but we're certainly working on it.
We have European fascists here. The point here is: why would an American fascist move to Amsterdam?
-
Ah but is that not something they opt to do because they feel safe? In comparison, American gun nuts would never do that, they don’t feel safe without their guns.
Yeah it is their choice.
-
Yeah it is their choice.
So that's part of the same point. They COULD have access to guns and could shoot each other, but nobody wants to. Thus guns are only a problem when there’s other underlying issues.

metal detectors and xray scanning of backpacks made me feel like I was going to prison lol
I can’t imagine going to school like that bro.
Like is it scary and you always wonder if some lunatic is going to come and shoot it up or no?

I mean, I also worry about getting beat up by bullies...
️ (its whatever, at least dying form gunshot wound is a cooler way to die than getting kicked in the face, luckily for me, neither happened (although the bullying definitely did happen, just not as violent as I imagine it could be)) -
As an American, I hope Canada gets some sort of barrier between it and the United States.
I would gladly go with my family and volunteer to help build it. If my family "accidentally" ends up on the Canadian side, I'd much rather stay though and help offset the crazy you have there....
I mean if you are there putting the last bricks in and you are standing on the north side you really don't have much of a choice.

What I learnt about bullies is once you smack them in the face most of them will think twice before bullying you again.

Everyone in Switzerland has a gun and they don't shoot eachother up. American society is fucked up on multiple different levels
Whenever i mention the Swiss having as many guns as the US, if not more, and yet the former has practically zero mass shooting incidents, and pointed out the problem of America is cultural, Americans tend to turn a blind eye to it.
Because a gun is cheaper than mental healthcare.

Well that I did. I defended myself against a bully who started a fight with me, then the school admin sided with the bully and call the cops on me. Luckily my mother naturalized as a US Citizen so I was safe from potential deportations, but like jesus christ wtf.
Fuck that school admin. ACAB.

It’s sad that the school did that and sided with the bully, but at least you stood your ground.
It’s shocking that teachers over there seem so quick to call the cops which is sure to escalate any situation. We had fights in school in the UK and never had cops called. Maybe that’s changed now with knives and stuff, but

Yea schools will always side with the bully or just look at the one incident in isolation not as a pattern of abuse.
Also the school system just doesn't work, like one time I reported a kid for talking about bringing a gun to school and it got turned around to ME threatening to bring a gun to school. Then that was a whole feasco that me and my parents had to deal with.

But since US has the issues, you should lock guns away.

The fact that you can even be considered for deportation over that is so dumb. That's a child, like not an adult with adult capacity.
-
Yeah this confuses me to no end. I thought they made America great last election?
Because they live in a constant state of cognitive dissonance.
-
As a gun owner in USA, I fucking hate gun culture.
That's why I never tell anyone outside of my immediate family that I own a firearm. Because some weird fucking people in America exist. And they are gun nuts.
No bro, I don't want to talk about your 300 blackout how you wish someone would bust into your house so you can shoot them.
I keep my shit in my safe, that's it. It's not a personality.

Well to be fair, no formal deportation procedures were ever initiated, so idk if that was actually possible (but had I not been a Citizen, it would've shown up in the files if I went through naturalization, so the USCIS Officer could potentially use that to determine "Crimes of Moral Turpitute" or that it indicates bad "Moral Character" and try to delay or deny naturalization, so it really depends on if you roll the dice and get a Obama appointed USCIS officer, or a trump appointed one). But that was during trump term 1 so I already got a bit paranoid. trump term 2 definitely would've attempted to use that as an excuse.

wrote last edited by [email protected]Same. Very few people know I own one and have a concealed license. Made sure the gf knew how to shoot and that she wouldn't hesitate to use it if necessary. But that's it. Been locked away at least since Valentine's last year when we went to shoot.

It's not JUST the guns tbh. Everyone in Switzerland has a gun and they don't shoot eachother up. American society is fucked up on multiple different levels and the guns are just adding extra fuel and oxygen to a forest fire.
And until our societal issues are solved, the guns need to go back into Pandora's box.
