4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.
Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.

10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
A hot take from the "it's because of video games, rap music and buildings having too many doors" crowd.
You don't need to be an expert at sexually abusing children to make child abuse laws and you don't need to know the calibre and capacity of 100 guns to see that the current laws are dogshit and can't keep guns out of the hands of even the reddest of flags.
Lol you're really going to go with "FUDD represents all firearm owners"? If I recall correctly tipper gore is the one who got the labels slapped on CDs...
You're arguing with a liberal gun owner, you absolutely should know about weapons you're trying to ban, because you clearly don't understand the difference between a plastic semi auto rifle and one with a wood stock... they're literally the same thing.
Speaking of red flags, have you gone through your own comment history and tallied up the number of times you've talked about sexually abusing children?
It seems you have a common theme on your mind.
Dangerous straws to grasp for gun advocates. I know what their forums look like.
Yes, those forums known as Reddit, Lemmy, etc... you're showing incredible works cited: crack pipe energy.
You already used that joke and it was shit the first time.
There was no joke, unfortunately.
