Give me a break
Are you having a laugh? Are you honestly telling me your society is totally fine with the amount of guns available today?
I'd love to believe your utopian theory, I really would. But that's just not Europaeny of me. Right?
Well if you promise to listen I'll stop patronizing you.
The biggest thing here is that registration = confiscation. That is the byline of the NRA based on what has happened in Austrailia and the UK. Not a unbased fear. Personally I wouldnt mind a liscensing system IF it meant that I could purchase
whatever I wanted and that it would
never get taken away. I dont want to hear "but you dont need whatever you want". I'm not insane, I live in the middle of nowhere, I have 240lbs of high explosives for "agricultural use" and see absolutely no reason why I cant have M2 or M60 (which because of our smattered gun laws are legal to own if made before 1986, going price is about $250,000).
The thing is that "gun control" doesnt have anything to do with control. It is for the complete ban on civilian ownership of any firearms except those suited for hunting purposes (and hunting isnt something that is hard, I could hunt shit with a musket). No give, no comprise. Recently (1994-2004) there was a ban on semi-automatic rifles that looked scary. The government arbitrarily decided that having a rifle that was coloured black, had a pistol grip, could take detachable magazines, and had a bayonet lug was evil and banned them outright, regardless of the fact that the mechanical operation of said rifles was exactly the same as what they declared to be legal hunting rifles. Absolutely no debate, no exceptions for people involved in sports that used these rifles etc.
Edited out: Just explained the 2nd amendment but I fear youd misunderstand what Im trying to get across.
Something that has been bugging me though, why do you use double quotes instead of single?
