Seems to me what you're saying is you'd rather have a terrorist insurgency than have your guns taken away.

Everyone 'knows' that. Lol.

Not a fucking chance they'd start a war over it.


what is a war?

two groups of people who hate each other equally and have the same goal to wipe each other out? that's not even close.

the government demanding that the populace turn in guns, the populace laughing and saying come and get it, and the government taking steps to come and get it is a war. war is a buzzword here honestly, disobedience is a better word for this context. but disobedience on this front leads to violence more reminiscent of war.

this argument isn't just historically ignorant it's ignorant of modern warfare.

islamists have withstood the might of the entire US army for decades now using small arms, homemade bombs, local knowledge, and grenade launchers.

just slow down bud, you're getting a bit biased now.


Don't forget the patriots in Ukraine and the battle at Euromaiden.

another fine example. Putin had to send in ringers disguised to break it all up. maybe we should be drafting muslim looking people to infiltrate ISIS and crush it from the inside.

Having guns taken away would be a cause for insurgency. It is the castration of the public.

Nobody is going to take the job of "federal gun collector" though.

A more effective solutions would be a guns for shoes program, where the government will give a nice voucher for some Air Jordan's in exchange for that hot Tec 9.

But that wouldn't help protect school children from upset young Caucasian males.

Maybe free WoW cards? Steam bucks?

There would be no war. In reality people have families and other things they want to live for. They see living as preferable to dying. Very few would actually take up arms and those that did would be red mist before you could say 'muh freedumz'.

so you honestly believe that if hypothetically the govt asked for all the guns, that people would just turn them all in.

1. this flies in the face of the estimates AUS got, nowhere near all of the semi autos

2. like i said before, what % of the population is in ISIS vs bystanders? 1% of stubborn people is an insurgence, that's 3 million+ people dude.

Mate - you are on such fucking thin ice with me. Since you've decided to start posting here again to escape the GC crowd and their absolute hatred for your woman abusing and generally bullying I have decided to play nice and be civil. But you keep that attitude up and I'll just straight up ignore you. I really don't care either way.



People talk about guns taken away like it's a thing that would happen door-to-door. It just isn't. It'd happen gradually.


except australia, the only comparable first world nation to USA.

and we've heard that for a long time, hasn't happened.
