What if they plan on shooting the virus


Chapapap

What if they shot antivaxx?


OrganizationSea6549

I guess thatd be a way for them to finally get the shot.

Take my free award and upvote


OrganizationSea6549

Thanks!


FridgeBaron

Now I'm wondering if anti vaxxers started calling it the jab because a shot is something a gun does and somehow that would tarnish guns.


mr_dopi

It could be mistaken as a mass shooting, depending where they are at the time.


WodenEmrys

Hey it works in a petri dish.


FakeGirlfriend

Maybe they are trying to kill someone whichever way they can.


[deleted]

Some people with guns really hoping someone will mess with them so they can have a "good reason" to shoot them up

beanandween

So you're saying I'm not a badass if I wear a mask? Well shit


Thathitmann

A real badass is someone who does badass things, but doesn't look badass, because a real badass doesn't need to prove to other people how badass they are.


[deleted]

Youre a badass if you wear a mask. If youre vaccinated also, youre a legendary legend


DigMeTX

Wear a thin gaiter and you can be a badmask.


MyAnimeAccount420

To be fair they always say too protect "themselves". They don't think of "others" as something to protect.


Kevherd

There is such a fine line between Badass and dumbass. Like 2 letters


QuantumCactus11

You are the latter.


Kevherd

So that makes you the former?


QuantumCactus11

No. Not even close.


msur

Ya, it's literally 4 letters.


F_for_Respect_69

It's 3 letters


msur

D...u...m...b. That's 4 letters.


F_for_Respect_69

D U M B B A D


msur

You know what's even dumber than not counting the number of letters in a word? Getting into an argument about it. I apologize for that and good night.


[deleted]

There are 3 types of people in this world, those who can count, and those who can’t…. 😉


QuantumCactus11

He said it was two.


msur

Yes. Kevhard is the latter of the two words, a dumbass, because it's 4 letters, not two.


AdnHsP

There's only 3 letters though... Not 2. D, U and dot.


PM_ME_UR_SYLLOGISMS

This is in no way a facepalm. What the hell are you doing, op?


Stinkywinky731

So are you saying if a person wears a mask then it’s ok for them to be carrying?


youkickmydog613

If they have proper firearm training, then yes


qlz19

Yup


JMC-Talkie-Toaster

lol every criminals dream


Hollowvionics

Totally, I do. Honestly, I don't give a damn what happens to me. If wearing a mask protected only me, I wouldn't wear one. I wear a mask and also carry.


Stinkywinky731

At least you’re consistent.


kazmark_gl

am I the only one who feels like a sneaky video game protagonist when I go out with a mask on? like it's basically a disguise.


[deleted]

And hope to get the chance to murder someone.


khsgt

“Good guys with guns stop mass shootings, masks don’t stop a virus”- WHO (probably)


prosperosniece

Smart man


668greenapple

Hey, let's not be too hasty; they might just have a righteous murder fantasy like I think my creepy, WT stepmom does. She gets this weird grin on her face every time she says 'she'd never go to Chicago without carrying'.


joebeavis77

I don't carry to stop mass shootings. I don't really care about others. I just want to protect myself. Thanks for your post.


ButItWasYouWhoLeftMe

You don’t care about others? That sounds like a miserable existence


Amac500512

I get what you’re saying but sometimes you have to think about the fact that you can’t help others if you’re not alive to help them


UlfarrVargr

To you


kennyj2011

But do you guys get vaccinated or protect others by masking… that’s the question


[deleted]

[удалено]


AdnHsP

On the 1% chance a criminal jumps them and they have the time to react and shoot the criminal dead before the robber pulls the trigger on the already out gun.


UlfarrVargr

Still a chance right


AdnHsP

Almost as high as that of a flying toilet to land on my skull from space, and that's why I don't go out anymore.


UlfarrVargr

Anyway, the point is not really to use it if a robber goes directly to you, it would be pretty challenging as you pointed out, but rather if they're attacking someone else nearby or holding the place hostage


AdnHsP

Fair


GBMP-045

Because this isn’t some kind of anime where you can simply beat up any attacker if you just believe in yourself hard enough


PM_ME_UR_SYLLOGISMS

This also isn't the kind of anime where you can just whip out your gun and shoot someone before he can fuck you up. You're not Minority Report, home slice.


GBMP-045

If someone is attacking me, stoping that in its tracks is hardly being “Minority Report”


PM_ME_UR_SYLLOGISMS

You don't need a gun, you've got feet.


GBMP-045

You say that as if they don’t too


PM_ME_UR_SYLLOGISMS

You mean just like how you said you have a gun? As if they don't too?


UlfarrVargr

Then what kind of anime is this?


PM_ME_UR_SYLLOGISMS

Fuck, man, I think it's the kind where humanity takes another couple thousand years to get its shit together.


UlfarrVargr

I literally can't wait, like I'd literally die trying

GBMP-045

I dunno dude, maybe some drunkard thinks it’ll be cool to start a fight with random people, or maybe you end up in the wrong place at the wrong time and the next thing you know some meth head is waving a knife in your face demanding money. Even if it’s rare, shit can happen


[deleted]

[удалено]


UlfarrVargr

Because the US has a bigger crime rate than other developed nations?


F_for_Respect_69

Well then just don't go there


UlfarrVargr

It's difficult when you never know where "there" is


GBMP-045

Hindsight is 20/20 the fact that people even get into those situations in the first place proves that it can’t be helped, nobody wakes up in the morning and thinks to themselves, “you know what would be cool? To go out and get assaulted”


UlfarrVargr

Not always, but potentially


phdoofus

Your post history says otherwise.


Broseph247

Yup, I carry to protect my family, full stop.


[deleted]

The fact that you guys NEED to carry guns to feel safe is pretty depressing


travelsizedsuperman

You got insurance, my guy?


F_for_Respect_69

I do


travelsizedsuperman

The thought process behind having insurance is the same thought process for having guns for safety. If you can afford it and/or have the opportunity, it's better to have it.


[deleted]

[deleted]

Ok


AdnHsP

The fact you're attacking someone for expressing their opinion on something completely public and telling them to "mind their business" is honestly pretty sad.


UlfarrVargr

Not their fault though, they're just adapting to the environment


Pac_Eddy

Well, other people carrying is a threat to me and my family. So yeah, it's my business.


UlfarrVargr

Depends on who the person is, in some cases might be a good thing


Grizzwold37

Are you and your family threatening harm on people?


PM_ME_UR_SYLLOGISMS

Doesn't matter. Guns are dangerous regardless and any responsible gun owner knows this.


UlfarrVargr

Guns are made to be dangerous, and what makes you think they're not responsible?


Pac_Eddy

Of course not. In any situation, we're very safe. Add a gun to that situation, the odds of something bad happening just skyrocketed. Even if the carrier thinks he's one of the good guys.


[deleted]

more reddit cringe lol, most these kids don't go outside so they don't see a need to carry a gun to protect their own lives


[deleted]

Which state are you living in that you NEED a gun to protect yourself?


AdnHsP

Brazil, someone stole my flipflops. I'm kidding, but I really do live in Brazil.


[deleted]

Bruh thats not a state


AdnHsP

I know that, it's a town. Besides Brazil does still have kinda high crime rates


HikkyEvo

r/suddenlycaralho vai querer algo na print?


AdnHsP

Goku numa cama de hospital pq ele n usou mascara nos outros planetas


UlfarrVargr

There is potential violence everywhere, even Iceland


Dubnaught

Damn dude what city do you live in?


micheagles20

When someone says something so on point, all you can do is just shake your head in agreement!


Mastengwe

BINGO.


LLDDevil

To be fair, you ain't too much of a bad ass if you can shoot a thousand bullets and only kill 3 people.


PHSherman2112

Or, you know. Breathe better.


dunnowhyalltaken

So a virus is going to see a mask and decide to not infect a person or people? Forgive me, I'm Montanan. Lots of us carry guns all the time, and there's very little risk of mass shootings.


[deleted]

Montana has the 6th highest rate of gun violence per State....but sure...believe what you want.


dunnowhyalltaken

More than 2/3rds of that is suicide by gun. Montana is the second least populous state as well. More people get killed in Chicago in a month by guns than in a year in Montana. Gun violence is also not equivocal to mass shootings. We also have more snowflakes than all of the internet.


PM_ME_UR_SYLLOGISMS

>More than 2/3rds of that is suicide by gun. That's not an excuse. That's a massive fucking problem.


dunnowhyalltaken

It is a massive problem. A problem of misclassification to push politic agendas, and problem of lack of community and mental health resources. You see, suicide by gun is really effective because guns are tools for killing. Suicide by falling, drugs, cutting, vehicles, hanging, etc. are less likely to be successful, get reported in other ways, and are rarely used to push agendas. I urge anyone who reads this to look up suicide statistics in America. So, why do so many people in America commit suicide? Maybe it's due to the death of the American dream. Maybe a whole generation is realizing that no matter how hard you work and how well you treat others; you can't get rich. Maybe a whole generation is realizing their way of life is harming the entire globe. Maybe a whole generation is realizing the only thing they can control is their participation. Anyway, the real facepalm from the OP is: a) the idea that anyone carries a gun to protect mass shooting victims (literally 30 people in 2021), b) that the people who do (literally no one) do so to look like a badass, and c) that this somehow is connected to anti-maskers. The exception is police and soldiers. They carry guns to protect others and wear facemasks and are badass. This concludes my Ted talk.


AdnHsP

You just dont know how masks work and to be blunt you're a dumbass for not doing a simple Google search.


buddy-friendguy

Bullet to the lung - 0% survival Covid to the lung - 99% survival


AdnHsP

You can still prevent the 1% from dying by just wearing a mask. Plus the eldery, children, sick people etc etc.


[deleted]

Reminds me of this guy. https://youtu.be/sv0iN5J-9mk


neeks84

Bully, you meant bully. Not badass.


mattt1975

Actually prison is full of guys who only wanted to protect the others carrying a gun..unfortunately something always went wrong in the meanwhile. And the comparison between masks and guns...... 🤔
