Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I'd say: It's your boss that fired you, not the tool.
"It wasn't the bullet that killed you, it was the gun." C'mon, dude. You're being obtuse.
"It wasn't the gun that killed you, it was the person who pulled the trigger." C'mon, dude. You're being obtuse.
Hi there, NRA. Didn't know you did small-time socmed.
Not everyone who supports gun rights are right-wing idiots.
Who was it again that said "Under no pretext should arms and ammunition be surrendered; any attempt to disarm the workers must be frustrated, by force if necessary"?
You're right but the right wing idiots are the ones perpetuating that kind of obviously flawed argument and not one of the armed socialist flavors.
But sure, go off
The point being made is you can't blame the tool for the operator's usage of it.
It depends on the tool.
If you're calling yourself a tool I'll concede the point.
Hilarious.
Watch me.
Guns have no use other than killing.
Yes. That doesn't give them agency or sentience or anything though.
Wow, i had no idea. Thank you for educating me on this topic.
I now support giving the tools for killing to all the irrational and emotionally driven humans.
Glad we agree the irrational and emotionally driven humans are the root problem!
