Well that is a lie on several fronts, stop being scared of everything and actually work to save the lives of children. You don't need a million guns with only two hands 🤣🤣🤣🐔

A nonspecific reply. Where is the lie(s)? Guns aren’t scary objects, they are tools. If children are taught about guns they are safer. Knowledge is power. FYI , I own many tools despite having just two hands. Different tools for different uses. One size does not fit all.

You’re right about one thing. Guns are tools. Tools to kill.

Knives, hammers, axes once were expressly designed to kill as well. They are still dangerous tools. Restrict them as well? Guns provide food, defend against attack, and protect you and yours. Banning everything based on it possibly being misused will make life harder. I’ve evolved beyond that.

The people who say “come and take it” are the ones that say I need to protect against a tyrannical government. Well here’s their opportunity and they are no where to be found. Either they are too scared, hence the need for an armory, or they never meant it in the first place.

As a student of history I’ve found disarming the populous often leads to tyranny and genocide. The founding fathers saw this first hand and made the effort to prevent it from happening here. Better a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war. Why are mass shootings always in gun free zones?

Seen from another perspective, I too having a history degree, the proliferation of weapons allow bad actors to obtain the weapons and commit said acts of violence. Though as a society we have generally evolved. Most developed countries are not under threat of a violent coup - tbd on USA.

No one is disarming anyone. The policies to limit the types of weapons, who can get them, and how quickly they can get them is not a barrier to 2a. If someone meets the legal criteria to purchase a weapon so be it. There is no reason why someone can walk into a Walmart and leave with a gun.

No, but they want to. FYI, Machine guns, the purest definition of an Assault weapon, have been outlawed since 1986. before then they were heavily regulated. To legally purchase a gun you must be of adult age, pass an FBI background check, and any requirements the states add, like a waiting period.

Yes one person at a time after multiple swings, hits, and stabs. They were also generally no defined laws or courts, except for the few advanced societies in Rome, Athens, London, and the far east. Then guess what humans evolved into developing more efficient weapons.

True, what was once a battle implement is now a popular sporting arm. Laws should protect or enhance your rights, not hinder or remove them. Because you abuse something doesn’t mean I should be treated as if I abuse it as well.

You can buy Sudafed but its a regulated substance because its used to cook meth. An 18yo can't just walk in and buy two AR's without an passing an FBI background check. In addition States tack on waiting periods, licenses, and other requirements. 365 rounds of ammo is just a good day at the range.

No one said anything about ammo. It makes no sense that someone with sever allergies can’t get multiple boxes of Sudafed at target but can go to Walmart and buy a gun off the shelf.

This argument is such bullshit. The states that have 3 day waiting period background checks auto approve if not completed in 3 days. If the background check process is backlogged guess what, banned owners get approved because it’s infringing on 2a to make them wait more than three days.

We want to ban assault weapons, this is not a hard concept. Assault weapons do not provide food, the destroy the animal. Assault weapons do not defend against any attack in regular society, they inflict maximum damage on children in the US. You don't want to defend, you want to intimidate.

If you use the first defined assault weapon, the StG 44, as a guide nothing in the u.s. comes close. You can spend thousands and wade through a matrix of government red tape to own an assault weapon but it’s already out of the hands of the average Joe.

Literally no one of any consequence has said all guns should be banned. The smallest effort to save lives has been to restrict who can purchase guns, where they can be purchased, requirements to complete a purchase, types of guns that can be purchased. This does not infringe on 2a.

We are closer to alignment. 2A is not the problem. The tool is not the problem, it’s the user. There are already restrictions on buying and owning guns as well as where and when they can be used. That is where legislation AND enforcement should be focused, not on the lawful citizens.

That is not true. Many states have tried to restrict gun purchases to 21 or at least assault rifle styles. NY tried to limit where guns can be carried. Those laws have been struck down by scotus on basis of 2a. DC AG is not enforcing open carry bans… let me know what legislation and enforcement

Bugsprays @bugsprays.bsky.social

In my state, you must be 18 for rifle and 21 for pistol purchases. It also defines where you may carry, open or concealed. The law also defines who can possess arms. No Scotus repeals. Must be the way it was written. Here the aim is to restrict those who flaunt the law and not the abuser.

Right. But that’s YOUR state. Those laws don’t prevent someone from going to the neighboring state at 18 to legally buy a pistol and then use it to murder someone(s) in your state. The only way to restrict/reduce mass gun violence is to do it nationally through Congress. But NRA and republicans.

This is 2025, I don't care about anything you say to justify your fear. Not a single person deserves to own an AR-15, a modified M-16 A2 assault rifle that you can easily modify to the original firing capacity. You don't have the freedom to intimate others, that is what you really want.

Well I don’t own an AR-15 or any of its variants and I don’t fear them. You’re projecting your fear on me. M16’s in military form are automatics and already illegal to own. Do you propose banning a legal product because it can be modified to be illegal? That sounds like paranoid thinking.
