53. As a gun and ammo buyer, you're complicit in kid deaths

Unless your gun and ammo manufacturer doesn’t dontate to the NRA.

Also, by the way, you’re also complicit in the Russian attack on America. Because Russia used the NRA to attack america. And gun and ammo purchases also subsidize the NRA.

The plain fact is that America gun fetishism is a devastatingly destructive force in our society. Feel free to stay part of that movement. But do it with your eyes open.
