“More Democrats Should Be Calling for the Repeal of the Second Amendment”

[Hanarchy Montanarchy]

Didn't they remove Sociopath from the diagnostic manual?

It was never in the DSM.

DSM has an even less helpful diagnosis Antisocial Personality Disorder... which covers a much wider range of problems.
There is substantial overlap... but sociopathy/psychopathy is more specific.

How would you describe the school shooter phenomenon? Or, is there a diagnostic with enough specificity that it wouldn't just creep into 'anybody a little eccentric?'

There is definitely no diagnostic specificity...

Those I have seen that fit the profile tend to be isolated, rejected loners who are already on the impulsive side... who are then prescribed antidepressants which only cause them to get more emotionally numb. They then turn to violent fantasies to that they can break through the numbness, often watching violent youtube videos or recreating school shootings in their fantasy world. This is an effort to act out revenge scenarios or draw attention to themselves and gain notoriety... to counter the loneliness they experience otherwise.

The perfect background check is a Unicorn, which is simply another aspect of the gun grabber unreasoned hysteria.

It is in fact the gun grabbers who present as the "organized sociopaths", because they are wholly unreasoned in their hysterical embrace of the dogma of Safety > Freedom, and ceaselessly lie, cheat, steal and manipulate in order to achieve those aims, regardless of the dire consequences of their totalitarian proclivities to the nation writ large.

The unpleasant truth is that, if you wanted to implement gun control that would actually do anything about violent crime, the best option would be to forbid blacks from owning firearms. If you find one of them owning firearms, then you lock them away in prison. Would that be unjust? Yep. Would it do something about gun homicides. though? Yep.

This entire gun control debacle is racial but nobody wants to admit it. Urban liberals want gun control because their blacks are killing at astonishing rates, and when somebody mentions the word gun, their minds envision a black man attacking them with it. But they don't want to admit they are afraid of blacks, so they decide to ban guns from everybody.

The further back you go in time, the less dishonest about that people are. This is why gun control, historically, was about limiting the ability of black people to own guns.

It's about limiting black people's access to firearms RIGHT NOW too. White urban liberals don't own guns for the most part, so to them, it's easier to just want to ban guns for everybody in order to hopefully get them out of the hands of black people.

That's all this is. That's all it ever was. Liberals are fucking racist as hell. All the time.

The sad truth about it is that there is a kernel of truth in it. They do have something to fear about urban black populations.

I honestly never understood liberal's opposition to ownership of guns. If the government is as oppresive as they say, as patriarchal as they say, as rascist as they say, then owning guns is a way to protect oneself from the government, and the black panthers were doing that. They faced racist police on the daily, hell I would almost say that instead of Ronald Reagan, who was the one who signed gun control legislation here, in opposition to American Freedom, Present Day Republicans should be celebrating the black panthers.

[Speaker to Animals]

Here is an example that might get the point through without the racial angle as well.

I might drink a glass of beer once every three or four years. That's it. I could go the rest of my life without alcohol and be just fine.

I really don't like the scourge of DUIs on the road, and it pisses me off every time somebody gets killed by a drunk driver. It would be easy for me to just support banning alcohol to do this because I don't participate in alcoholic culture at all. If I felt particularly threatened by drunk drivers the way urban liberals are threatened by their blacks, it could be very easy for me to just want to ban alcoholic beverages for everybody, not just for irresponsible alcoholics.

For the urban liberal, the constant need to virtue signal their "anti-racism" in order to assuage their misplaced guilt for very real racism, it's much easier to just demand that everybody lose their right of self-defense in order to (hopefully) disarm the violent sub-population in their cities that threaten them so much. They are terrified to just come out and even acknowledge that the vast majority of their violent crime, that is their daily fear, is perpetrated by black people.

But you can see the reality of it in the way they live. You don't see white liberals moving into the ghettos. They don't marry up with some ghetto queen. They separate themselves from that as much as possible, hence why everybody calls those places ghettos.

To be a liberal in America today is to live in fear of black people. That's literally what it means. If you are not afraid of getting attacked by one in your cities, you are afraid of getting labeled a racist by one, or to look like you don't care about "their issues". It's really quite ridiculous.

I shit you not: it's about fear. In the context of urban liberals, it's fear of minorities with weapons that want to do them harm (because that threat is very real in the cities).

I actually sympathize with them here, but they can't even admit the problem. Instead they are attacking the rest of us who have nothing to do with what threatens them.

The only way forward, in my opinion, is for the white liberals to stop coddling black people like they do. Demand these people clean up their communities. Stop destroying their families. Stop enabling their single mothers. Just stop the gibs altogether.

It's the same prescription I have for women in general. Stop coddling them. Stop giving them shit. Make them own their lives and take responsibility for themselves. That's the fear of liberal men: to be criticized by women for not giving them shit.

It's all the same stupid neurosis.
