    Public support

    I know the system is stacked against the majority in favor of vocal extremist minority rural rule but the numbers can only drop so low before y’all lose control.

    Literally everyone I know owns guns. Even my Democrat friends/family.

    Let us not forget who left a billion dollars worth of deadly US weapons in Afghanistan!

    No country in the world has as many mass shootings as the US.

    Which also has a homicide rate 5 times higher than the Western average.

    I will repeat again.

    The Constitution was written to protect the citizens.

    If the Constitution allows crazy people to arm themselves to the point of scaring the police, it must be changed.

    why would anyone listen what is clearly reactionary thinking with NO emphasis on solving actual murder rates?

    Going after the good guys while these clowns are still out there looks pretty dumb. Really dumb.

    You don’t care about stopping murder, you’re making that up. https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2018/crime-in-the-u.s.-2018/tables/table-43

    WHY?

    How is mandatory training, licensing, regulation or checks (or any combination of) “going after the good guys”?

    because the gov is a walking, talking, ****hot mess. They have no business in my guns, and my guns have nothing to do with them.

    I’ll take it a step further. I’ve trained with gov guys in a variety of spec classes, they’re nothing special. The average fbi monkey couldn’t fight their way out of a bag of noodles. I dated a special agent in charge of training and continuing education with xxx and brought her to our mma school, she was blown away at the difference between the crap they did and private proper schools.
    The only reason the gov wants to know about your guns is so they can take them at a later date, trust them on your own nickel.

    Do you know what ordinance is? You realize we can see that you’re obfuscating for a reason, right?

    So you’re not a textualist? Suddenly the 2nd requires interpretation? 2nd says arms and arms are all weapons.

    What great American wrote these words??

    "God created nature and is the author of science so all natural rights are God given."

    The natural right and ability to terminate a pregnancy was given to women by God, and removed by man...

    I can certainly see where your confusion comes from.... hard to square that circle...

    I thought taking them would be next to impossible?

    The logic seems very circular

    I think it is strange that your argument is basically “I want it and no one can tell me what to do” and you believe that means more to anyone than these constant shootings.

    It doesn’t.

    They are, quite simply, a pro-murder organization, out to profit on the circumstance that we no longer have enough politicians capable of shutting them down... politically or practically.

    Seems like a lot of public support for gun ownership.

    It would be impossible, but that doesn’t mean much to stupid people. Like politicians, and fear mongers.

    you can’t stop shootings. https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2018/crime-in-the-u.s.-2018/tables/table-43
    the cops can’t even stop these people. Wanna knock 52% of the murders down, or just make noise?

    The closest you can get is mitigating risk by hardening the layers of security.

    A question was asked. I answered it. And you turn it into an attack. And you wonder and scoff at the idea that there are those that think Christians are under attack. (btw, I don't follow religion as it is created by man to control man)
