Feb 26th:A new bill in Arizona is making its way through the Senate that would force sites like e621 to implement mandatory age verification for all users—or face potential lawsuits. This system would require third-party vendors to verify every user’s age through a government database. Not only is this a massive violation of privacy, but it also introduces serious risks, including identity theft through phishing schemes and other malicious methods. Worse still, we would have no control over ensuring that user data is permanently deleted after verification.
Since e621 operates out of Arizona, this law would almost certainly impact us if it passes. If you want to help ensure that we can continue serving you without being forced to collect personal information, we urge you to contact Arizona’s senators and ask them to vote NO on this bill.
Please help spread the word about this issue and encourage others to take action.

MemberNo, I'm sorry, that is not okay. Protect can block attacks far more destructive than a goddamn bullet.

MemberAgreed. I always thought part of the reason guns weren't a thing among Pokemon was because Pokemon attacks can be so much more powerful.

Member...you're reading a fan-made comic about pokémon and humans from other dimensions on a porn-based website where people are free to display their artwork for the enjoyment of others to promote creativity and freedom of expression, and y'all questioning the legitimacy of the effectiveness in the bullet-stopping capabilities of an electric rodent's forcefield?

MemberNow that I look at the title of the comic again, I think I know where the artist is going with this.
Am I a fan of it? Not really.
Am I interested? Partially.

MemberI thought the comic was doing that pretty well ^_^
I see it too. It's a neat idea IMO, but I wonder if the author is thinking of a handgun as being just an invention. There's a lot of emotional baggage that comes with that particular prop (which I think is what is turning off a lot of people), and I don't see much to suggest this is intentional on the author's part.
