    What is it they suddenly think they need protection from? Oh right...the zombie apocalypse. That's what's happening right? :roll:

    should we also REQUIRE mandatory education on the pitfalls of voting Democrat before we permit anyone their RIGHT to vote?

    I've never once needed a fire extinguisher but I've always had several.

    They all the sudden realize they need protection from other people. Probably had to do with those memes were people who own guns say something about others buying supplies for them.

    Humor is a foreign concept to a lot of people.

    Things got to where they are now. Are you saying that there is absolutely no chance of things getting worse and people will just chill when they have zero supplies to survive on?

    What protection do they think they need? Have roving bandits been going from house to house robbing people?

    Ok, since many are scared we will eventually have our firearms seized and then subjected by the government, what options do you feel are acceptable to limit or eliminate sale of guns to people deemed not eligible? Especially on the secondary market.

    Are there even any ideas?

    Except there are no zero supplies. The supermarkets where I live are stocked with food and supplies. Hell, just picked up toilet paper and food yesterday.

    Huh?

    What "consequences" do they "deserve"?

    Be specific. Thanks.

    If you are going to reply to my post, how 'bout answering the question I asked you in said post, which was...

    " Are you saying that there is absolutely no chance of things getting worse and people will just chill when they have zero supplies to survive on?"

    they're getting guns for protection that's why they're buying guns. I can't believe this is difficult for you.
    Since the dawn of human civilization yes.

    We got laws on the books spelling out very clearly sentences for such crimes if there were people out doing it then we probably wouldn't have those laws.

    Lol

    No, you didn't answer my question. You answered your question. I didn't ask that one because it was an ignorant question.

    Ask me when the Overwhelming Majority (let us say 200 Million Americans) have "zero supplies to survive on".

    That is about as likely as the Zombie Apocalypse and Nuclear Holocaust happening simultaneously.

    But, sure. Feel free to ask again when that actually happens.

    Then, at that point, "stockpiling guns" will save the day? Got it.:bored:

    In any event, let us talk about something 1,000,000 Times More LIKELY:

    Protection from what though? Why the sudden need for this protection? Again, are there roving bandits going from house to house robbing people that I'm not aware of???

    other people.
    it isn't all the sudden it's been there all along it they just didn't want to acknowledge it.
    again yes they have been since the dawn of civilization. It's why we have jail sentences for things like armed robbery, or burglary.

    It's why so many businesses have burglar alarms.

    If you don't know about this I suggest you pull your head out of the hole that you've had it stuffed in for your entire life get on whatever rocket ship you took to Mars and return to Earth.

    Try reading the question again but this time, comprehension is something you might want to try as well.

    Again...

    So really no rational reason for all of a sudden needing a gun. Got it.

    As there are no zero supplies there is no reason for things to get worse. Not sure how you didn't get that the first time.

    Outside of coming to your senses no. I'm sorry it took something like this to yank a lot of people out of their stupor but better late than never.

    so when somebody has zero supplies to survive on that means nobody has any supplies survive on?

    Something like what? Has there been a rash of people being robbed at gun point due to the virus?
