Did you notice that in none of the debates this year and in none of the interviews or round-table discussions or Town Halls, absolutely fucking no one brought up gun rights, gun ownership, mass shootings, or anything even tangentially related to guns? Every single fucking year it's been guns this guns that take all the guns and melt them down and turn it into a giant dildo but this year, the year where there's been an astronomical number of gun sales, the year when everyone said there's been so many fucking gun sales that the gun debate is completely dead?Right there with you. Never really cared much about politics past a few minor pet issues (guns), and my politics were largely my father's. In '16 I voted third party as a protest vote, knowing that it didn't matter one way or the other because of how blue my state is. I remember watching the election results come in over dinner, eager to see what flavor of fucked we were. Turns out it was nacho cheese flavored, which, in hindsight, isn't such a bad fuck after all.
Yeah, there wasn't a peep about them, was there. Just like that, this existential threat that's going to murder all of our children if we don't do something right just now stopped being a threat overnight, I guess. There's more guns in American hands than ever before, but I guess they're the super safe kind that don't shoot anybody because the politicians sure weren't interested in talking about it this election.
