Does this dingus not remember that the US use to hire private citizens with BATTLE SHIPS??? that had… Cannons? (aka Privateers)
https://www.thoughtco.com/privateers-definition-1773340
and in the revolution they had to provide their own rifle?
How did we end up with such an idiot as a president? Oh yeah.. Orange man bad. That’s right.
And as far as private citizens with civilian arms fighting off armies… I think you should do a little research on oh I don’t know, the history of the worl?. Time and time again, the armed people are able to fend off and even defeat armies far better equipped.
Also, Just a fact, fewer than 500 (the number is closer to 200) people are killed by ALL rifles every year. ALL rifles. not just the scary black ones. over 3x that number were killed by knives, where are the laws banning assault knives? 2x the number of people are killed by blunt objects, where is the ban on assault bats? they are far more of a risk to the average person than a Rifle.
Can somebody please tell me what the ACTUAL logic is? other than disarming the population, that has been done before all tyrannical takeovers, you know… like Hitler, Lenin, Mao, Castro, Chavez. Honestly can you name a dictator that DIDN’T first disarm the people?
I just can’t anymore. We as a society have become stupid, complacent, and allow our destiny to be controlled by “somebody else” That’s what we’re doing when we let others make choices for us that we should be making for ourselves. When we don’t take responsibility for our selves, that is OUR progress we give up.
Regardless of your PERSONAL feelings about if you should or should not own one, The fact that the government is so desperate to take them away should have you VERY worried. There is a reason it is the 2nd amendment, and it originally has 0 restrictions. “Shall not be infringed”.
If any of my friends/family read this and would like to learn more about firearms in general, or would like to learn specifics, or go shooting for the first time. Let me know. You shouldn’t make a decision in ignorance.
