Only in America
Re: Only in America
Considering the percentage of mass shootings that take place in 'gun free zones', I think it would be safer in a place with concealed carry or constitutional carry protected.
Cops will often use their guns to protect the public (and themselves). Who else do you think should be allowed to do that?

Re: Only in America
Of the 500 or so mass shootings in the US every year none are stopped by the good guy with gun. Except that one above in the thread. Guns are never going to stop mass shooters starting a shooting. They eventually stop them, but by then many are dead. This is because the shooter has a plan. They always have a plan. And a manifesto!

Re: Only in America
You are so full of shit, it isn't even funny. Who told you there were no examples? Why did you believe them? After being so easily shown to be foolishly wrong, now that you have seen an example, why still believe them?Tero wrote: ↑Sat Oct 28, 2023 3:28 pmOf the 500 or so mass shootings in the US every year none are stopped by the good guy with gun.

And just who do you think should have the right to have firearms? Only the wealthy? Only the government?

Re: Only in America
Nobody. Nobody should have firearms. Those serving in the military and police must check thrm in before going home.

Re: Only in America
That's a terrible fantasy. Only government guns allowed? That would make it easy to be a dictatorship, but in a free country things are different.
In the real world, for example, lots of people have firearms.
If you decide to answer in a way that recognizes reality, feel free to have another go. Til then, I'll treat your words as the fantasies of the immature.

Re: Only in America
Your guns are useless against the government. If that is why you have them, just trade them for a couple of fishing rods or a snow blower.

Re: Only in America
Your government is already well protected by guns.
If you don't think you deserve the same protections, ok.
You should always trust government, especially when Trump wins. They want what is best for you, and if they don't arrive fast enough to stop a crime, that's just the cost of living in a crime-riddled society.
Wanting to have the right to protect yourself from criminals would make you a right-wing nut job, so just don't.

Re: Only in America
Main shooter armed with two guns

finishing the job so that the tyrannical government does not "get him."
The government was armed with vests and probably helmets. No chance he would ever get any of the government at this point.

Re: Only in America
Guns are no longer sufficient for protection. We need drones and guided missiles, and shopping should be done in armed convoys and surprise sorties.

Or we just faithfully go with Amazon and even take the goods for return to a place for "free returns." Shopping malls are so 1900s.
