To anti-gun users : How do you plan to protect yourself and your family from danger?

@SunshineGirl

Self righteous virtue signaling noted

@Thrust they have forgotten a little thing called the war of 1812. They liked guns then

@WowwGirl

And especially in Northern Ireland!

@Thrust maybe

@WowwGirl That was their army not the citizens

@Thrust Actually, it's a bit of pride in what a nation can build through consensus and legal reform. The word I had in mind is "patriotism".

@SunshineGirl serf is mote appropriate

@JimboSaturn army members are citizens lol

@WowwGirl Because a war 212 years ago is so relevant!

@Thrust Where peace could gave been achieved much sooner had there not been an ongoing supply of US guns.

@22Michelle

And now you are at the mercy of the next despot who comes to power

Congratulations 🥳

@Thrust And you're not????? You really think a bunch of fat guys carrying rifles are going to take on the US military??

@22Michelle we still won

@22Michelle Been through this a billion times. All those vaunted weapons have to be operated by men. Who are just as vulnerable as the men on the correct side. And not many loyal soldiers will turn on their countrymen who are loyal to the country's ideals.

And it's a moot point, with half the world's guns here a 5th column would be suicidal to even try it.

Think that's an exaggeration? 2 of the last 3 presidents have been full blown power mad wannabe tyrants who would have LOVED to turn the military on everyone here to the right of Stalin

@Thrust Which two of three. Only one gas been power mad, and sadly he's voming back
As for the reslt of your diatribe what are you on about with "the correct side" and if it ever comes to pass you'll find the military will obey their orders. And the insurrectionists will get their comeuppance.
And yet again I find myself anazed at how and why so many Americans live in fear. That's why we here in UK, and most of Europe don't feel the need to arm ourselves to the teeth we dont live in fear of mulgiple conspiracy theories.

@22Michelle it is amazing how gullible you are. You have complete trust in the benevolence of those seeking power over you.

Bidet and Ozulu epitomize power thirsty and complete unscrupulousness. They were always overjoyed to weaponize the government and destroy the lives of any opposition. But sure, they wouldn't have gone further if there were no guaranteed resitance 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

@Thrust You're in need of psychiatric help.

@WowwGirl In 1812?

@22Michelle

The amount of willful ignorance you ooze is truly astounding. Especially in Europe where the natural state is war.

The only reason that has been kept in somewhat check since WWII is the US military presence, and, for all its faults, NATO

@WowwGirl No they are not civilians hence the lingo civies. surely you can differentiate between being in the armed forces and given a firearm to defend your country and an being a paranoid, uninformed, untrained, ill-informed civilian

@WowwGirl

Notice now he says civilians instead of citizens. Weak attempt at a save from self-beclownment

@Thrust Answer my question.

@JimboSaturn if owning guns makes you more safe,why does America have 10x the gun violence and death? Why are toddlers being shot in the face? Why mass shootings 10x more than the rest of the world? Answer me that now or don't bother answering me at all.
