old NRA talking points taste best when shat out by young podcasters.
you are missing things.
a lot of things.
1. A civil society without excess numbers of guns is better than one with, all things being equal.
2. Guns generally last a reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally long time, 100 years is well possible.
bullets.
BULLETS.
guns without bullets aren't very useful.
just like a mind without critical thinking skills...
3. The US is a special case, many unusual factors come together.
3a. The US is already flooded with both legally and illegally owned guns.
flooded by who?
who makes the guns?
who makes the guns and who makes the loopholes?
are you stupid? - yes. yes you are.
3b. The US is a multicultural and thus low-trust society.
that lowtrust perpetuated by fearstoked media and leadership.
3c. The US is founded on the principle of suspicion of government, unlike e.g. Europe where the corresponding principle is arguably obedience to government. Therefore the public feel they need guns to protect themselves from gov, and gov remains corrupt bc it is almost in the title.
it IS in the "title"
"security of the State" against the Fed.
not the 2008 version.
3d. The casual use of guns in US crime is already a well-established principle, including in home invasions.
that is irrelevant.
if you want to plead for real stats, use grocery store hold ups
3e. The mentally ill are 'kept' on the street in the US as opposed to in institutions. A generalization, fight me.
that is irrelevant to guns unless you need a gun to shoot the mentally ill.
what is relevant is why it's not on the gun application.
and has been kept off the application.
and redflag are being fought against.
and vouching is not on the application.
so you're wrong - twice.
congrats on making a double wrong statement.
4. Effective gun confiscation in the US is an impossibility. The best that could be hoped for is to take away all legally owned guns, leaving criminals with all the guns and law abiding citizens defenceless. Not a satisfactory outcome.
kirk could've had 2guns on each hip.
without a plated vest it does nothing.
you walk around vested?
also, BULLLETS.
alos also, the outcome is only in your opinion.
if the State wants you to have defense, it's the State's rights, not the Fed.
5. Tightening gun legislation in the US is mostly pointless bc as it is, any malcontent who wants a gun is going to be able to get a gun, laws or no laws.
this is just repetition of #2, #3abcde, #4.
"it's pointless so do nothing."
so's abortion.
so's illegal immigration.
so's drug use.
so's speech.
so's transwashroom.
so's pedo's.
so's trump grabbing pussy.
