3% of Americans own 50% of the guns. Also only 30% of Americans own a gun.




That's what the "polls" show. ^^

When you only got 2 arms and own 10 guns what you think people are going to do with their extra guns?

Give them to their neighbors and friends that don't own one

Standard fallback for a weak-minded shill with no real point. Thanks for trying though.



There is no hypothetical involved in my statement. And "the federal government using troops against the people" isn't a realistic hypothetical.

A firearm is a source of everything from food to self preservation. That you believe, in your fairytale fluffy foofoo land of frills that others should not have access to this tool because you don't trust them with it? Too bad buttercup! Pull up your big girl panties, grow up, and shut the fuck up.

You do not control other people. The more you try, the more violent the backlash. There's a difference between trying to moderate behaviors and trying to remove a person's ability to preserve their own life and the lives of their families.

Then again, I'm guessing you're defending the cops that prevented the parents of elementary school children from saving their children... for an hour. Yes?


"If"

Keep up the delusional rants that have nothing to do with anything though

I would also like to point out as somebody did earlier that AK47s were enough to stop the US Military from completing their mission in Afghanistan.

Afghanistan has 12.5 guns per 100 people

United States has 120.5 guns per 100 people

It's just a poll.
With all the politcal rig-a-ma-tole about guns... I'd say you could easily have another 30% that own guns, but won't admit it.

Yes.
The Taliban won in Afghanistan with much worse weapons.


Not sure why everyone is defaulting into this terrible argument, including people who have served in the military, but I think it needs to be noted that this specific conflict was not a full fledged military conflict that the United states was going to just stomp the taliban into the ground, much as they should have.

Nobody. Not China, not Russia, not the entire rest of the world, can stand against the united states millitary. If anyone tells you that they can, they are lying, most likely purposefully. And if the entire rest of the world cant stop the united states millitary at full force, what in the flying fuck are a bunch of toothless hillbillies and their shit for brains sons with a couple guns going to do?

You're going to fucking do nothing. Now stop sitting here at your keyboards telling other people that you are and giggling every time a bunch of children that arent yours get gunned down by a mentally ill son of yours.

Glad to see you're willing to just make stuff up when the evidence doesn't like up with what you want to believe.

You're behaving as though your "if" is meaningful. You seek to justify the removal of people's right to self-preservation, then refuse to acknowledge how backwards and dangerous that is, then act surprised when you're treated like a child?

We just saw 19 children ranging from 6 to 9 years old gunned down while police actively prevented parents, including armed parents, from responding to save their children. AKA children died because the POLICE forced it to happen. The POLICE prevented the armed citizen from saving the children. The ARMED POLICE, who you support, aided and abetted in the murder of 19 children.

Fuck your "it's the guns" bullshit. It's clearly the State. Had the government not interfered, the shooter would have been dead an hour earlier, and fewer children would have died.
