Sweden isn't Free like Us!

In the wake of the worst mass shooting in Sweden's history, the Nation and political leaders plan to enact stricter Gun Laws.

Sweden's government has announced plans to tighten gun laws, as police confirmed for the first time on Friday details of those killed in the worst mass shooting the country's history.

Seven women and four men between 28 and 68 died in the attack, police said, including the gunman. All were from Orebro county, the region where the shooting took place.

Police also confirmed that the killer was a 35-year-old man. He has been widely named by Swedish media as Rickard Andersson.

It was previously confirmed that the gunman legally owned four rifles, three of which were found at the scene alongside 10 empty magazines. 

Sweden’s government , like other civilized Nations in the world, responded to this by trying to protect its’ citizens, restrict gun violence, and stop future mass shootings.

Because they hate Freedom!  Not like here!  Here you are free to be gunned down in a school!  In a church!  In a grocery store!  Or maybe shot by your significant other!  In Maine, a white power conservative gun nut beat up his child bride and then engaged in a standoff and gun battle with Police, ultimately killing a poor K-9 service dog in his Blaze of Glory.

"My name is Steven Righini. I am a resident of Maine, and I had the cops called on me. A SWAT team showed up, and I'm now engaged in a shootout," Righini said in the video.

It seems quaint to talk about the way Republicans inverted the concept of Freedom in America as they are in the midst of Their Coup to replace the United States with a simulacrum of a democratic republic.

The Republicans bamboozled men into believing Guns = Masculinity, Liberty, Freedom and a bunch of other nonsense.  Now most white men believe if they don't have a gun the Other or the Democrats will get them.

Of course, when presented with facts about how owning a gun makes you less safe in a home, or that guns are rarely used in bonafide defensive gun use (DGU), or that guns are most often used to kill women before the "loving" husband turns the weapon on himself?  Well, they choose not to believe .

But, I gotta be able to protect my family, is the most often shouted rejoinder!  Oh really?  If you really wanted to protect your family, you'd get vaccinated, you'd eat healthier, you'd do some laundry, you'd wash the floor and counter-tops!  Well... No that's not what I meant.   No, what these men mean is I gotta be able to live out my Fantasy of pulling my sidearm and dropping that intruder!  While, in the real world most intruders, are juveniles sneaking back into the home only to be shot and killed by their fathers.

Instead men cling to this fantasy world in which Transgender Athletes are more dangerous than Guns.  Which is why Republicans are dutifully passing laws and Trump is issuing Executive Orders to ban Trans persons.  How they will accomplish this, beyond a thorough genital inspection, is anyones' guess;  but, we all know it's theater and those Trans athletes are going to self-exclude themselves from Sports rather than face the possibility Nancy Mace will grab their crotches.

But, the real reason Republicans flooded the Nation with Guns and undermined Law&Order over and over was for the political power having a potential stable of paramilitary armed fanatics at their disposal provides.  And don't believe those people on Social Media who claim paramilitary domestic terrorists don't have power.  We are currently witnessing Elon Musk army of infants seizing control of multiple agencies and gaining access to vast amounts of data which should be confidential and doing who knows what to the computer systems and servers they've simply seized without firing a shot.  And then we saw a single Triple Canopy Rightwing Terrorist stymie the elected House and Senate Democrats by blocking their access to the EPA HQ a department of the Federal Government.

Well... it certainly seems like the End has Come as so many warned but, White People are fucking loving this.  Like Vandals, they see nothing worth saving in the Federal Government.  Incensed by the gentle steps towards a more perfect union taken by Presidents Obama and Biden, white men have responded to the whiff of equity and equality with a full-on Fascist furor and either their burn it all down fever breaks or the Nation does.
