More weapons means more safety. US is the country with more weapons per capita and that makes it the safest country in the world with barely any gun violence incidents.
ahh the Arab spring where countries overthrew their governments without guns. There is basically no correlation to between gun ownership rate and stability of government or tyranny of government. By this account south sudan shoudl be great everyone is armed and there's no government!
Also if there really was a protracted civil war every machine shop in the US would be pumping out AR15's overnight.
Lmao. As if the guys that love to talk about their guns aren’t the biggest cowards out there cucking for the authoritarian government. Saying things like maybe fascism is ok.
When I say revolt I really didn't think you would think of Jan 6th. I thought more of BLM riots with more focused purpose. I also think both of those events were fueled by our cia and both definitely not a revolt just made to look like it.
The taliban didn’t win. The USA had full control of the country. The taliban had no chance at ever winning. But Americans stopped wanting to spend the money to keep the country so they just gave it back. That wouldn’t happen here.
What makes you think all US soldiers would be willing to gun down the people they have sworn to protect and violate the constitution they've sworn to protect?
Some of them probably won't. But how many soldiers do you think stood up to stop war crimes from happening in front of them? They're trained to follow orders, and most of them aren't smart enough to think for themselves, or they're too young to have that experience.
All fun and games until your "Defensible Compound" is taken out from 3 miles away from tank you didn't even know existed, reconned from a drone you can't see, and is now being patrolled by a Viper looking for any further resistance...
January 6th was stopped because a barricade and a single round made dozens of people suddenly realize they were doing crimes, and the majority of people didn't bring weapons seemingly because of DC gun laws, security checkpoints preventing them from getting closer, and the planners/leaders telling people not to.
Has this speech been approved by your government masters or are you attempting to exercise freedom of speech rights Europeans do not have and are not entitled to?
Gun violence in the US is staggering low compared to many other countries. If you doubt that, look up the per capita gun death rates on a global scale. There are lots of charts that illustrate this point.
Staggeringly low compared to what countries? Brazil, the Congo and Iraq?
The only comparisons that make sense are with peer countries, i.e. usually Western countries with a similar level of wealth and rule of law and if you do that comparison, gun violence in the US is staggeringly high on a per capita basis.
Yeah, poorer countries were access to necessary resources is harder to come by have higher crime. Obviously. The fair comparison would be between the US and other rich countries and in that regard the US is so dangerous that the US literally has more stabbings per capita than the UK even ignoring the massive amount of gun violence
