Well, actually evil will die when the kingdom of the Lord comes to us. But first the Wrath of God has to happen and before that the great tribulations, that we are currently facing.

But i see what you want to say there. I myself won't get any guns but I support your second amendment and the right you guys have on your constitution to arm your self in equal capacity to the government in case it becomes tyrannic. I in fact defend it here in Costa Rica, and when I speak with lefty customers as well.

I just want to say I don't agree with the assertion that Evil will never die.

Nope! Someone 1500 miles away did something and you need to pay for it!

If someone invented a non-lethal weapon with the same efficacy and stopping power as conventional guns it'd go along way.

At the end of the day, America is a unique case which is what I explain to fellow Aussies who point at Australian gun laws without any deeper thought. We're a more heterogeneous society, we've never had proliferation to the extent of America, we don't share easily crossed borders with dangerous neighbours, and we don't have as many subcultures as the US does across their states. If I lived in the US I'd own a gun and conceal carry. Although the Wild West reality is not ideal and seems odd to a foreigner, it just seems foreign because it is a foreign culture. Probably similar to how Americans see Aussies when we're poking poisonous snakes and spiders. Once you live with something as a norm, the acceptance of the risks and the understanding of how to treat things is just normal.

I'd love to visit the Southern States of the US some day, from friends who've been there they are some of the nicest genuine people. I think I could easily share a few beers with a Texan and go hunting while talking shit.

I believe we can suppress man's barbaric nature with technology. I do understand the 1984 issue... But what if we had an AI watch over us, by writing some laws down in a program.

While I do support every aspect of the second amendment and what it stands for, personally I have valued it throughout my life for many more reasons than just the “overthrowing corruption, Wolverines style” aspect. What makes me the most grateful for the 2A is the fact that when I was growing up as a young poor inner city kid in the south, my family and myself were kept safe from criminals and crackheads multiple times thanks to 1) our right to own guns, 2) concealed carry, and 3) castle doctrine.

I remember as a kid seeing my mom, dad, and grandfather each having to “up the iron on his ass” (as they all called it) on several occasions. We had run-ins with muggers, crackheads, gangbangers, and all the sorts while on a simple trip to the Winn Dixie to get groceries or at the gas station. Mom even had to shoot an M1 .30cal carbine through the back door because some asshole was shooting the deadbolt with a .22 revolver, trying to get in. Most of these guys were people that went to school with my parents back when they were teens and those thugs were felons who couldn’t have legal access to guns anyway.

My parents are still Democrats unfortunately, but they make sure all their friends and peers and coworkers are informed on being pro-gun and never giving up your only means of self/home/freedom defense.

When were you discharged, "TexasVet"?

If you took out suicides and the 5 worst cities in America for murders America would be considered one of the safest countries in the world for gun violence especially when you consider how many guns we have.. insane.

That's t-shirt material.

Nope we most restrict the freedoms of people who actually follow the law for the few who don't, I was thinking, in my state you are not allowed to tint the front windows of you're car, every one is banded from having front tint because a select few used it to attack cops.

Agreed

Hey, when are you going to address the "begged for money for food and then bought guns" accusations? You seem like you might be a huge piece of shit.

Only the barbaric nature of human beings benefits from disarming civilized ones.

Thus you texasvet gotta scam to get a firearm?

You did misappropriated funds right? Why not give money back from who you took.

Its lowbrow to do that. Loyal to whom you are? You want celeb status? To be a mouth?

Give the cash back.

Also because niggers.

Niggers ruin everything.

The second amendment is outdated. We need a gun ban in America and we will get one. Those kids protesting against guns will be your masters soon, better enjoy those guns while you can!

An obvious truth missed by many who prefer a fairytale instead of the truth.

The problem is, who gets to decide what is good?

Evil prevails when good men fail to act, or in this case; prevented from action.

I very much agree with you. The left seems to think that evil can be eradicated. Taking an hour to truly study humanity would show evil shall never be purged. In fact, in order to control the people so evil does not spread in public, one must become evil themselves in order to enact such extreme regime. The reality is the world isn't perfect and crazies exist. You can either protect your own self, or give that autonomy over to other people. Giving up the right to protect oneself is giving up a human element that will ultimately be abused.

we have tried getting guns out of bad hands, it is now time that we put guns into good hands instead!

Is this a quote?

Oh but liberals know much better than everybody else. They can design society so that everything is perfect and we can all be buddies! Don't you realize that?

Especially when you consider that some of that most barbaric nature is present in our government.
