Unfortunate. The US does love its billionaires. To me, Bloomberg’s only redeeming feature is that he’s not Trump. That’s a very significant redeeming feature, however.
Maybe not Dan. Unless you are voting for bernie and having a footlong cold cut trio sub with extra meat and heavy on the oil and vinegar for the healing cancer to rapidly spread to your shoulder.
Good question. I’m not sure what the fine is. 1000 a month for each death would be significant.
Did he specify if the death was due to defect in the firearm or null if chambered with an incorrect round? Lot of gun manufacturers have gotten hit hard on sales when news of breech exploding or a slide getting blown off and htting the user or person adjacent. They would have to regulate the ammunition and not allow reloading or custom rounds or +p, +p+ , stinger etc… =. There should be limits on warranty and used.
Sounds good. Putting firearms in the same category as fitness equipment like treadmills, exercise bikes, and fitness balls. Just can’t wait until you have the police called on you and take you in on a domestic or psych eval and you can’t ever own one anyway.
Looks like a million per death.
I forgot yang wants to give away 1000 per month to everyone. No wonder you want him to win. We need to pay more taxes. Not fewer.
I’m surprised Yang made the debate stage. All he has is a promise to give you money.

I’ll take the million dollar fines to the gun companies over the 1000 dollars. Imagine all the kombucha I could drink. Could really use that million dollars.
Doesn’t every type of supremacist group plan on the pruchase of an ar-15 in the first month of the freedom dividend?
I think it would be easier to go after espresso machines.
It probably would be. The gun addicts are more protective than the caffeine addicts.
I hate to burst yer bubble, Captain Obvious, but you should probably get used to the idea that its not going to be good for the Dems. LOL

dont worry if you buy the new and improved gun with grip detection or shoot only 1 or a few people in a quiet neighbourhood your favourite gunmaker wont be charged…
“if you’re a gun owner, you’re a parent, you like your gun not being dangerous to others. as long as you trust the technology, then you’re open to the sort of change,” said yang.
the proposed fine for manufacturers would apply not just to deaths from high-profile mass shootings, but also perhaps to individual shootings in high-crime neighborhoods .
Oh, I know what you’re saying. I’ve talked to my guns about this and my guns agree. As dangerous as they have been, they love strangers and would never do anything to compromise their upright position in our safe.
In my defense, my gun fits my hand so well, I have no problem double-crossing it and using it for my own selfish purpose.
I am curious how Yang would handle strangulation by hands? Do you think hands should be treated the same as guns?
Since hands also have other uses like holding other hands, shouldn’t the penalty for murder be reviewed and mercy applied?
lol those are yangs words not mine, personally i think only insecure frightened people own guns and would like to see all guns illegal
if you follow yangs logic he might come up with new special gloves and only charge the manufacturers of other gloves?
I have no intention of following his logic. I’m stubborn this morning and prefer mine to his.
thinking for yourself… very good but interesting, i thought making money where you can was the american and thus gods way…
being stubborn is something i respect… probably because its my only good quality lol
That yang quote is so ignorant. You like your guns being not dangerous to others. They shouldn’t have a gun if they think that.
You can’t really compare hands and guns since hands have lot of uses and guns only have 1.

amen
although you could use guns to keep books together or place them beneath a broken table leg or even to melt them down and make something useful of it
