You're welcome, by the way.My entire country is a āgun free zoneā. Only cops and crooks have guns.
Only the USA lets anyone who wants a gun to buy an AR15. 35,000 people a year die by gun violence in the US every year.
Semi-automatic weapons and 2nd Amendment have become the American suicide pact.
I'll explain.
The U.S. has the most powerful military the world has ever known. That military likely protects your country. The people controlling our military have the power to do REALLY horrible things. We, the people, keep those people in check by the threat of armed rebellion.
Because we, the people are armed,, your country is allowed to exist without being overrun by warlords.
Again, you're welcome.
Letās apply some common sense to this total lack of logic on your part.
Yes, you have the most powerful military in the world and they have the most devasting and powerful weapons ever created. The notion that civilians need to be armed to protect themselves from their government, while not entirely without merit, denied the reality that your puny guns arenāt any kind of match for MOABās, tanks, smart bombs, and the myriad ways the government has to put down an insurrection.
If you want an example, try David Koresh and the Branch Davidians in Waco. And the government didnāt even break out their big guns for that one.
The idea that an army of civilians armed with handguns and rifles would be able to protect your democracy from the US military is laughable in the extreme.
If you want to protect yourself from your government, the way to do it is through your ballot box. Stop electing people in the pay of corporations and the elite. Elect a government āby the people, of the people, and for the peopleā, instead of those who serve the elite.
I suggest you look at the Romanian revolution then to give you a recent example of armed civilians doing just that. They started with .22 caliber target pistols, and worked their way up the ladder till they had tanks. Just imagine how many would have been saved if they didn't have to start with such pitiful weapons.
