Reading these comments it seems like most of the anti gun crowd thinks pro gun is about machismo at the cost of tragedy. It's mainly about protection of the people from the government. It's the last failsafe to keeping free in the case of tyranny. We all agree there needs to be better regulation because in the past and currently the laws are designed over feelings and not facts, for example barrel length restrictions or pistol grips that mainly only effects the ergonomics.
Lol sure there John Wayne.
I legit can't think of another country with people that LARP more about revolution than the US. Most affluent country in the world and you're constantly imagining youselves forming up and fighting back against tanks and helicopters (or your fellow citizens who happen to vote for the other team). It'd be funny if it wasn't so tragic and bizarre.
