     @Hoss you already can't buy a gun if you also smoke medicinal weed (federal law) so throw trannies in too. fruits and weed smokers cannot be trusted with firearms.

     Just add estrogen to the scheduled substances list, testosterone is already on there anyway. That'd make possessing Brazilian troonshine and firearms an instant felony.

     @Dudebro @sally @Hoss the prohibition on weed smokers is really just a prohibition on niggers because the only way you can get denied for it is being an absolute retard by either showing your FFL your med card or showing up reeking of weed

     It's really just a handy way for the feds to raid anybody they don't like who happens to own guns. All you need is a scrap of evidence to show a judge that suggests there could be a loose weed gummy in the couch cushions on the same property as a firearm, then you have free reign to cram a bunch of life destroying felony charges up their ass. That's the real reason they keep weed scheduled federally. See: FPSRussia.

     Federal licensing relies on court process or adjudication of some sort instead of solely on your clinical diagnosis. So just make sure you're never crazy enough that it lands you in front of a judge. 🥂

     States are another matter, the variation is all over the place there.

     I prefer the lottery from the book The Lottery.

     I certainly don't have faith in Trump to do anything but be occasionally entertaining and muddy the waters for Capitol Hill. He's useful for that much. Doesn't matter much if multiple competing factions desire disarmament if they're too busy trying to throw each other in prison to cooperate. Trump is a tool useful for specific things, much his Elon, his best friend turned nemesis. My whole political philosophy banks on these guys getting the occasional W that works for me while all their worst tendencies result in more Ls for them due to power struggles than results in any actionable policies against shit I care about. It's worked out so far. Not because of any control I have over the situation at large, obviously, but because of the chaotic playing field it has created.

     Pam Bondi was anti-gun before, I doubt this move is a one-issue deal. And orange nigger is passing laws against anti-semitism. Put the two together, and the DOJ gets to grab guns.

     Basic synopsis is you can get all the cash you want, for free, but every dollar you get is an entry into the lottery. If your number gets pulled you get culled.
     
     Edit: that was the synopsis of the episode of sliders that was based on the short story. Original happens in corn country in the 1940's

     IIRC the premise of Hunger Games was based around the idea that the more entries you put into the draw, the more resources you got as compensation. Wouldn't be surprised if the foid who wrote that series stole the idea from that book.

     I suppose when every dollar is a chance of being killed by the government you value every penny.
     
     Sliders season 1 episode 10 is what came to mind.

     It's not a bad system to use for discouraging parasitism. It would be rigged to the high heavens in any real world implementation of course.
