    Guns equating to freedom is straight up NRA propaganda. Do we really think people in Australia, the UK, and Japan are oppressed by tyranny?

    The 2nd is the only “right” that the lowest government official can execute you for exercising. That’s what passes for freedom in America?

        What, into some kind of, what, a militia?

        I mean, I guess so, but what about regulations? Would they be well?

      This is one of those things where there is a workable middle ground.

      There isn’t anything inherently wrong with gun ownership, but it should be heavily regulated and require a license which to acquire, requires that you prove you have a fundamental level of safety.

      i-think-that Yes obviously because they are states, and they impose capitalist economies on their subjects anarchy

      Nah, the lowest government official might execute you for exercising any right or none at all, especially if you’re Black or Indigenous. AmeriKKKa
