    Yang is the only one left with any clue at all about anything. I wouldn't vote for him, but I can at least respect him. The rest is a fucking dumpster fire of epic proportions.

    Why not vote for him? Just wondering what you don’t like.
    Hes not a fake faggot, but he's wrong about shit and I disagree with him.

    I also feel that way about Tulsi, but she makes me hard so there's that.
    Fair enough. A few here have mentioned the 2A stance. Are you in the same boat or is something else your issue with Yang?
    I have never shot a gun in my life

    Yang is too asian imo

    Because you asked so nicely, and I am ride or die with you, here is the answer that I just pulled right off Yang's website. I am sure there are numerous other items that I do not agree with, but this right here is more than enough for me (I bolded the ones I find particularly onerous but almost all of it sucks):

    As President, I will...

    Close the gun show and Charleston loopholes, requiring all gun sales and most transfers to have a background check run and completed.
    Implement a purchase limit (rate, not total) on all firearms.
    Implement a federal cooling-off period to decrease the incidence of suicide and impulsive crime.
    Promote a stringent licensing system, with a 5-year renewal requirement, for gun ownership.
    Anyone desiring a license would need to:
    Go through a federal background check.
    Anyone with a history of violence, domestic abuse, or violent mental illness would not be allowed to hold a license.
    Interview with a federal agent, who has limited discretion on granting the license.
    Pass a basic hunting or firearm safety class.
    Provide a receipt for an appropriately-sized gun locker, or trigger locks (tax deductible).
    Individual states will determine their concealed carry/open carry laws, and reciprocity will not be federally enforced.
    Create a clear definition of “assault weapon”, and prevent their manufacture and sale.
    Prohibit the manufacture and sale of bump stocks, suppressors, incendiary/exploding ammunition, and grenade launcher attachments, and other accessories that alter functionality in a way that increases their firing rate or impact.
    Automatically confiscate any weapon that has been modified in a way as to increase its ammunition capacity, firing rate, or impact.
    Create an agency tasked with monitoring gun manufacturing developments and addressing “design-arounds” as they arise.
    Renew a ban on Large Capacity Ammo Feeding Devices (LCAFDs) and after-market non-standard large capacity magazines.
    Pass a federal gun transportation law that will require people to transport guns unloaded and locked in a storage safe.

    Increase liability for individuals who sell guns illegally that are used to commit a crime.
    Form a commission to study the development of 3D printing technology to see ways we can minimize the risk of this technology in perpetuating gun violence.
    Maintain current restrictions on and definitions of automatic weaponry.
    Stridently enforce importation restrictions on weapons and accessories.
    Create federal safety guidelines for gun manufacture and distribution, similar to federal car safety requirements, with strict penalties for the violation of these guidelines.
    Use tax incentives to encourage gun manufacturers to implement designs that prevent interchanging parts that alter the functionality of the firearm.
    Repeal laws that shield gun manufacturers from liability.
    Invest in personalized gun technology that makes it difficult or impossible for someone other than a gun’s owner to fire it, and ensure that they’re for sale on the marketplace.
    Provide a tax credit for the full value of upgrading a gun to use these systems, or work through the buyback program to allow “trades” of non-personalized guns to personalized ones.
    Implement a federal buyback program for anyone who wants to voluntarily give up their firearm.
    As stated here, invest in a more robust mental health infrastructure. This will help to identify and treat people with mental health illnesses that make them prone to suicide.
    Increase funding to the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, and drastically increase funding to the US Department of Veterans Affairs Suicide Prevention efforts.
    Direct the CDC to research gun violence, and reject any budget deal that includes the Dickey Amendment.
    Require all locations where guns are sold to display information on how to receive mental health treatment or reach suicide crisis hotlines.
    Initiate and fund mindfulness programs in schools and correctional facilities, which have been demonstrated to reduce violent behavior.
    Invest heavily in law enforcement training to de-escalate situations involving firearms, and provide funding to programs that involve mental health professionals in de-escalation situations.
    Exactly. Non of that would would move the needle on gun violence. Just make normal people jump through more hoops.
    What is your solution? You speak definitely that it won’t help. But until we try I don’t know that we can say that with such certainty.

    I’m open to ideas, and the reason I support him is that I think he is too.

    Asians are people of color when all the other peoples of color are out of the race and its just Asians and white people

    Asians are not people of color when it comes to any other forms of demographic analysis. Income, crime rates, education, etc.

    Interesting.

    But we have to DO SOMETHING!!!
    I contend he won’t actually do anything with guns.

    What now?
    They'll try. You claim not to be a commie and say you're voting commie in the next breath.

    You come get mine. Deal?
    Congratulations, you’ve used that word to the point that it has lost all meaning.

    And if I was coming for yours, I’d bring mine. Wanna sword fight???
    Bring all the knives you want to the gunfight. Intelligent choice.

    Yang is the only one left with any clue at all about anything. I wouldn't vote for him, but I can at least respect him. The rest is a fucking dumpster fire of epic proportions.

    Why not vote for him? Just wondering what you don’t like.
    Because you asked so nicely, and I am ride or die with you, here is the answer that I just pulled right off Yang's website. I am sure there are numerous other items that I do not agree with, but this right here is more than enough for me (I bolded the ones I find particularly onerous but almost all of it sucks):

    As President, I will...

    Close the gun show and Charleston loopholes, requiring all gun sales and most transfers to have a background check run and completed.
    Implement a purchase limit (rate, not total) on all firearms.
    Implement a federal cooling-off period to decrease the incidence of suicide and impulsive crime.
    Promote a stringent licensing system, with a 5-year renewal requirement, for gun ownership.
    Anyone desiring a license would need to:
    Go through a federal background check.
    Anyone with a history of violence, domestic abuse, or violent mental illness would not be allowed to hold a license.
    Interview with a federal agent, who has limited discretion on granting the license.
    Pass a basic hunting or firearm safety class.
    Provide a receipt for an appropriately-sized gun locker, or trigger locks (tax deductible).
    Individual states will determine their concealed carry/open carry laws, and reciprocity will not be federally enforced.
    Create a clear definition of “assault weapon”, and prevent their manufacture and sale.
    Prohibit the manufacture and sale of bump stocks, suppressors, incendiary/exploding ammunition, and grenade launcher attachments, and other accessories that alter functionality in a way that increases their firing rate or impact.
    Automatically confiscate any weapon that has been modified in a way as to increase its ammunition capacity, firing rate, or impact.
    Create an agency tasked with monitoring gun manufacturing developments and addressing “design-arounds” as they arise.
    Renew a ban on Large Capacity Ammo Feeding Devices (LCAFDs) and after-market non-standard large capacity magazines.
    Pass a federal gun transportation law that will require people to transport guns unloaded and locked in a storage safe.

    Increase liability for individuals who sell guns illegally that are used to commit a crime.
    Form a commission to study the development of 3D printing technology to see ways we can minimize the risk of this technology in perpetuating gun violence.
    Maintain current restrictions on and definitions of automatic weaponry.
    Stridently enforce importation restrictions on weapons and accessories.
    Create federal safety guidelines for gun manufacture and distribution, similar to federal car safety requirements, with strict penalties for the violation of these guidelines.
    Use tax incentives to encourage gun manufacturers to implement designs that prevent interchanging parts that alter the functionality of the firearm.
    Repeal laws that shield gun manufacturers from liability.
    Invest in personalized gun technology that makes it difficult or impossible for someone other than a gun’s owner to fire it, and ensure that they’re for sale on the marketplace.
    Provide a tax credit for the full value of upgrading a gun to use these systems, or work through the buyback program to allow “trades” of non-personalized guns to personalized ones.
    Implement a federal buyback program for anyone who wants to voluntarily give up their firearm.
    As stated here, invest in a more robust mental health infrastructure. This will help to identify and treat people with mental health illnesses that make them prone to suicide.
    Increase funding to the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, and drastically increase funding to the US Department of Veterans Affairs Suicide Prevention efforts.
    Direct the CDC to research gun violence, and reject any budget deal that includes the Dickey Amendment.
    Require all locations where guns are sold to display information on how to receive mental health treatment or reach suicide crisis hotlines.
    Initiate and fund mindfulness programs in schools and correctional facilities, which have been demonstrated to reduce violent behavior.
    Invest heavily in law enforcement training to de-escalate situations involving firearms, and provide funding to programs that involve mental health professionals in de-escalation situations.
    Exactly. Non of that would would move the needle on gun violence. Just make normal people jump through more hoops.
    What is your solution? You speak definitely that it won’t help. But until we try I don’t know that we can say that with such certainty.

    I’m open to ideas, and the reason I support him is that I think he is too.
