This Democratic Lawmaker Just Exploited Suicidal Veterans to Promote a

It is typical for the anti-gunner left to use victims of gun violence -
particularly kids who lose their lives in school shootings - to push for more
restrictions on firearms. However, Sen. Mazie Hirono (D-HI) decided to think
outside of the box and used a different group of people as pawns: Veterans.

In a post on X, Hirono pointed out that "Around 4,600 veterans die by firearm
suicide every year" and announced her plan to "introduce the Large Capacity
Ammunition Feeding Device Act" in the next Congress.

Um.

Let's say a veteran decides to take his own life.
Let's say a veteran decides to use an AR-15.
Let's say a veteran uses a 20-- no-- a 30 round magazine.
How many times is the veteran going to pull the trigger?

 You just want to ban things the government feels is a threat to it.

Pretending that veterans are taking their lives because they own magazines that
can carry more than ten rounds is absurd on its face. But it is also dangerous
because it distracts from the real problem: Mental health.

You are assuming they actually care.. when all they actually doing is coming up with an excuse.
It would be like banning shoes because most people who commit suicide are wearing shoes when they kill themselves.
