Can Gun Nuts Please Stop Saying You Need Guns to Protect Yourself From A Potential Tyrannical Government!!!

It's actually us white folks who are getting most of the bailout money. We get government-backed loans, contracts, facilities, tax cuts..etc. So what are you talking about? We exploit and enslave people to serve our lusts and fill our stomachs. Those black folks worked hard in those plantations. It was the sweat and blood of slaves that built America. Even the white house was built by blacks. Go get an education, Bubba.

HAHAHAH…right, and that dark dude cleaning the shitters and pushing a broom for Bill Gates built Microsoft.hahah
Is that you shown at left in the image below?

And it’s high time Americans owned up to what the 2A was crafted for. Politicians should fear the People. Not the other way around. That was the Founding Fathers intent!

It was never the Founders' intent that the government should protect itself from the People.

Indeed. Rather it should kneel in servitude before them. Ever fearful of the peoples displeasure with their service…

You American liberals are the problem, it's not gun ownership or Americans owning combat rifles. You can't even define what a woman is anymore and you're subjecting children to dangerous hormone treatments and sex reassignment surgery, then you wonder why people are going postal? You want to blame guns, but you fail to see that the problem is our modern culture, fueled by capitalist decadence. Much of all of this gender confusion, feminism, the breakup of the traditional family, the pornography, is all the result of profit pursuing capitalists exploiting human vice and attempting to control consumers and what they consume.

Why are there so many people today hooked on anti-depressants? More than ever today, we have a mental health crisis. You want to disarm good, law abiding Americans? Why would anyone want to disarm the populace? You're not going to protect them by doing that. The working-class, the American people should always remain armed. If anyone is going to be disarmed, let it be the capitalists. The wealthy elites, the bankers, disarm them. Disarm the politicians, but arm the people. Working families, the average, law abiding American should always have access to firearms, especially combat rifles. Your assumption that Americans can't organize a guerilla force and fight tyranny shows how naive and ignorant you are of warfare.

You raise some interesting points, but the LGBT stuff you mention is pushed by people who align politically more with Communists and Socialists than Capitalists.

And profit is a great motivator. Without it, the successful are not motivated to make great improvements, as the profit gets confiscated and redistributed.

Yet another thread full of rightwing lies and demagoguery.

Guns aren’t going to be ‘banned’; guns aren’t going to be ‘confiscated.’

No they won’t. Thanks to us not giving an inch on this.

It makes you sound mentally challenged.

Having guns is not going to protect you from the police or military. With normal police equipment, SWAT teams, police tactics and fire power etc, they can easily neutralize any armed threat or movement. They wouldn't even break a sweat. Not to mention, police surveillance tactics will make it impossible for an anti-government group to organize a big enough threat to the regime. You don't have a chance. And that is only the police. Your little AR-15 isn't going to do anything to a drone, tank, apache helicopter, fighter jet or combat unit (much less special forces). There is a reason you have not seen a people's uprising to over-throw a government even in Africa in decade. And really only Sudan has been overthrown by a military coup.

No, the only reason you want certain guns (such as a AR-15) is because you like to have them.

It is true the vast majority of gun owners are responsible and good people, including AR-15 owners. But that 1% or 0.05% that are not responsible can cause havoc, as we just saw in Highland park (an event I was on my way to attend and an event to which I know many people that were directly effected).

If you want to hunt, then a single shot hunting rifle will suffice. If it is about home defense, then handguns and shotguns (which as both short-range) would be sufficient.

There are many things that can be done, such as arm teachers, have cops in schools, secure soft targets, better mental health facilities, red flag rules and immunity for snitching, involuntary institutionalization, high standards for gun ownership, higher and minimum sentences for illegal gun possession, Federal no buy lists, vicarious liability for guns for the gun owner etc., but stop with the argument that you need guns for tyrannical governments! Because it is foolish.

There should be a ban on all guns other then single shot hunting rifles, handguns and shotguns.

Now I know handguns are by far the weapon of choice in the vast number of homicides, but so called "assault rifles" (yes I know that is a term the liberals made up) it by far a more sufficient weapon to commit mass murder then a handgun, even if they are semi-automatic (vs full).

Keep sticking to these stances that turn off the moderates (e.g. ban on abortion and do nothing on guns) and then cry about how Demorats can win with gas over $5-6, out of control inflation, major blunders in foreign policy and everyone hating woke politics. If the Demorats keep the House and pick up senate seats you are going to see the most radical changes to this country that we haver ever seen.

I don't own a firearm. But I see that by and large, people that do mass shootings skirt liberal gun control laws. So many examples, I wont bother. I don't have cheap easy answer, but penalizing legal gun owners is like penalizing all car owners/operators for drunk drivers. That won't fix a damn thing.

No.

Can you stop using more than one repeated punctuation mark at the end of a sentence?

It makes you look illiterate.

He's not wrong ... although, mostly ... I put it down to a lack of English education.

And "Good Omens" was a brilliant piece of literature.

So how come Ukrainian citizens using personal firearms against Russians is admirable, but Americans wanting to be able to do the same thing makes us sound unhinged?


I'd rather have a small chance, than no chance at all. Partisans are extremely irritating and damaging to military forces.

They are using their guns and billions of dollars in our armour and other countries armory, to fight a FOREIGN invader, not their own country's government?

With Neil Gaiman... it's on the shelf of my coffee table too read. I tried to get into once a while back, not after I finished American Gods. I'll give it another shot soon, but it didn't take the first time.
