I’m mostly in favor of gun ownership, but unless I’m allowed to own RPGs, bombs, and other similar equipment then I’m not going to be able to do much against the military with it. Gun ownership is for self-defense, not fighting the military like so many right wing nuts dream about. The only real option if fighting the military happens is aid from outside or taking the military’s equipment. Both of these do not require prior ownership of weapons. Alternatively, knowledge of bomb making would be another tool, and does not require prior ownership, though this knowledge is controlled already and not defended by typical gun-rights organizations.
Yeah, a populace armed with AR-15s and Glocks can’t fight bombers, but when a government reaches the point where bombers are being used against the population you’ll also have a military split, so there will be heavy equipment on both sides.
Imagine something smaller in scale, like if the governor of Texas decided to start execution of liberals while Trump was President. Trump probably wouldn’t directly take part, but also wouldn’t send in the military to stop the governor.
That’s where small arms for civilians becomes relevant.
They’re also relevant because they’re distributed. With 100 million+ armed households, there’s no safe way to be a tyrant.
Trump was almost killed by 1 person who planned poorly. If there were millions of armed people moved to that level of violence it would be impossible to govern without committing the kind of atrocity that would cause a military split/coup.
Any of you anti-gun people have second thoughts hearing shit like this?
The gun people are expecting the guns to be pointed at the libs. They’re all for it.
They are absolutely clueless that any dictator strips guns from people because they can’t bear any threat.
I am gun people…I’m not point my shit at Americans.
The US is spending $1.7T over the next thirty years to completely overhaul its nuclear arsenal.
But don’t worry, I’ve got a Beretta in my holster and a shotgun under the bed.
You forget about Vietnam? Isis is also kicking around still too which you have to know about seeing how recent that one was.
It’s not worth the argument. They won’t understand.

Everyone looks at extremes.

If you haven’t been targeted by the police for running your mouth at them then who are you lecturing exactly ?
Why are you attacking your allies ? Not everyone should have a fucking gun, mate.
