"Bingo." 👆

The CPD is corrupt as f*ck. The politicians in this city legit got mad at a dude who wore a wire to expose corrupt alderman. That bothered them more than the corruption itself.Maybe where you live the police would come through better, but it's not everybody's reality man.
The only way to combat corruption is:
1. Expose illegal corruption
2. Make legal corruption, illegal
Support the Anti-Corruption Act, work with your local politicians to get it passed at the local level. Notify the FBI and your state police when you see corruption within the CPD. Make sure you have evidence.
Making changes requires work. You cannot just claim someone is corrupt and expect the corruption to stop. Look at all the people with TDS: almost none of them are changing anything and are just whining.
But I do think the government should put a cap on the paperwork processing periods and it cannot exceed 20 days.

I hate to be a party pooper (man, these puns are so spicy that even Thai people can't handle them) but I have some bad news for you: I could kill you and your entire family before any of you could grab your guns even if your guns were under your pillow. And I'm not anywhere close to a professional. All it takes is a little bit of planning and then execution (damn...I am thoroughly impressed with myself. I need a moment. I have to pat myself on the back a bit more for the puns).
If someone wants to kill you, they will kill you. The probability that you will be attacked out in the country is many times lower than in a city, however. Within 20 feet, a gun is not the best weapon to defend yourself. Inside of a home, if you are more than 20 feet away from an invader, you're just in a terribly crappy situation.

This 30 day shit would probably hurt minorities the most.
How would a black single mother living in the ghetto begin the process of exposing the deep corruption that is seeded throughout this city?

How many mass shootings do you think would be stopped by adding a 20 day waiting period?
I covered this already.
None. Absolutely none in the last forever that I can see.
The Texas Church shooter should have been stopped by the existing gun laws from getting the guns he used to kill people, by the way. We don't need more laws (we actually need a federal law that raises the standards and requires all states to have a minimum standard in place). We need to enforce the laws we already have, implement universal healthcare that also offers mental healthcare, and start encouraging our children to seek professional help for their mental problems.

Lets say you have a mother a father and a kid. The father gets mixed up in crime and gangs. Gets killed. Sometimes these gangs will target the families in retaliation as well. The mother wants to get a gun to protect herself and child. She should wait 30 days?
No. Not at all.
That's a stupid decision by the mother and she will fail horribly to protect herself and her surviving child.
She should be put into protective custody and quietly moved to another location for her safety.
Let me be more clear: I have done the speed run targeting shooting. I'm really damn good. I would get my ass shot to swiss cheese in the mother's scenario if I was in her position as long as it was a 'surprise clean-up hit.' This is not the movies. If a gang of killers who have killed people are targeting you, you will die unless you sneak kill them first (all their entire gang). You can't John Wick your way through those scenarios.

I don't think a month is unreasonable at all. The idea of them taking their time to do a thorough background check is comforting.
Background checks take seconds. It is just a database query. It shouldn't take that long.
For security clearances, I've had to request my background check get done. Years ago, it took 30 seconds. This is Oklahoma, a state not known for it's up-to-date infrastructure.
The only other element to a background check is the credit check. That also takes seconds. Reality is, a background check should take a few minutes and there is no excuse for it to take more than 10 days. The waiting period is to make people consider shooting up something in anger. That's legit, though.

Having just gone through the process of getting my first ever passport, they could do it similar to that. Have a month be like the worst case scenario, and if you pay more, you could have it expedited. With a passport, the baseline is about 3 months from the time you do all the paperwork to when you get it, but you can pay to get that time down to a few weeks, and you can pay even more to get it down to like 10 days. Could do the same with guns.
I remember that. It doesn't need to take that long. The USCIS is so backlogged and running such an out of date process that it takes them that long. It should take seconds to complete it and then whatever snail mail takes to get it. It's one of the things on my "agenda" to get fixed.

This is something I've talked about, before. Democrats don't realize that they are still parading about the same bullshit racist talking points that they did over 150 years ago - anything to disarm black people is a good idea to Democrats.
Disarm black people, make them dependent upon you to survive, have a built in voter base. This is almost a direct paraphrase of what Johnson said the Democratic party's strategy was. You think I'm joking?
Here's the wonderful LBJ write up from MSNBC about his involvement in the Civil Rights Movement and what a giant racist piece of crap he is:

If I can convince you to take off of work, join me at the speed-run range - I am legendary and I missed my calling as a room-clearer. It's like I was born to run through rooms killing people with direct headshots.
Glad I didn't join the military - I don't want to kill anyone.

Jax. You're supposed to be rooting for Jax. He's supposed to be the one truly righteous person in the show. He starts out being a gang-banger. Then learns to grow up and mature. Then has to make some hard decisions. Then learns he wants a good life for his son.

Reality: I like shooting guns, but I'm a terrible shot.
In fantasy world where these yahoos live though, I'd John Wick your ass.

I'm going to pretend you mean you would take care of it quite well unless someone killed my ass and then you'd go on a murdering rampage.

Lololol, remember when he injected heroin into his ex wife.
Giggity. So heroic. Superman is jelly.
