2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods.

This could have been prevented if there was a good toddler with a gun.

The toddlers need gun training. If every toddler had a gun, stuff like this wouldn't happen.

[–] Diplomjodler@feddit.de 24 points 1 year ago

The solution is obviously to try toddlers as adults.

Another opportunity to talk to your toddler about good trigger discipline.

Now remember kids, for a jam you put the magazine in, you take the magazine out... in out, in out, shake it all about.

Instructions unclear. I now have strawberry jam in my magazine.

Now now, Timmy... in an active shooter situation you'd be dead, you silly billy.

That's why my new bill would mandate that all babies receive in-womb gun-safety training. New borns are expected to complete a gun-safety test. If they fail, they're shot and killed. We only care about life until birth.

Or if we just had mental health programs for toddlers, we wouldn't have any issues with giving toddlers guns!
