    The fact you failed to recognize the fault logic of your argument aside...
    This is a convenient, and unsupportable, supposition on your part.
    You speak form an obstinate and intolerantly devotion to your opinions and prejudices
    For every person murdered with a firearm, around firearms 10 are used in self defense.
    For every person who commits suicide with a a firearm, around 4 firearms are used in self-defense.
    Thus, you have no rational basis for your statement.

    Perhaps you have a point there.

    You are one snarky jafa, aren't you?

    Say what you like about Singapore, but I'll take them over the progressive nonsense of your country.

    A lot of things probably seem weird about us, since we're one of the few cultures that actually created a better system than the one we kicked out. That required guns, however, and that's why we consider ownership of them a right.

    The right to keep and bear arms stands between the left and their State having a monopoly on force.
    That's why they seek to make it hard as possible for the law abiding to exercise that right, and why those dead white guys added the 2nd Amendment.

    Agreed. And these Brits and Aussies will never understand that. We might as well speak a different language.

    Your position on people, aptly summarised.
    I prefer my position on guns to your position on people.

    Yes, that's definitely why we don't invade America.
    Fact is you don't need your guns, you want your guns. And the price you are willing to pay as a nation is 20,000 deaths a year.
    That is your choice, but don't keep trying to falsely justify it.

    And many Americans do care what the rest of the world think of us — Republicans did also pre-cult — we understand we do not live in a vacuum. Many of us also like to see where we can improve and what is working for other nations, only partisan fools bury their head while acting like they have accomplished something.

    A better system would have been one without the 2nd amendment in the first place. Think about it, is there any country that looks at the USA and thinks, "I wish we had the second amendment"?

    Then clearly your committment to 'rights' is skin deep at best. You would basically throw away all the rights Americans claim to hold dear just to avoid 'woke nonsense'. Duly noted.

    Possibly, but you would be talking low single figures.

    You can repeat it all day long if you wish. Let me ask my question again: What exactly am I assuming? If it was about the "arsenal", then I already gave you my response (in the part of my post which you edited out).

    If the 2nd amendment was taken as it was intended its not a bad idea.
    The right to bear arms referred to the right to take up arms if needed, to form militia and train. Not for would be cowboys to brag about the arsenal of military grade weapons in their shed, that then get taken to college by hormone driven teenagers or pointed at neighbours by men with anger management issues.

    Wasn't it more created to fight against their own government if they became tyrannical hence nowadays it would be fighting against missiles and jets with hand guns. The reason for the inclusion of the second is now redundant. But gun owners do love their guns. I think it's quite funny when they post pictures of their guns to show off to other gun lovers.

    Fact is, we have a RIGHT to our guns.
    The reasons we choose to exercise that right do not matter, and your opinion of those reasons matters even less.
    20,000... compared to how many guns?

    It was intended to protect the right of the people so that they would always have access to the means to effectively protect themselves, individually and collectively.
    Unsupportable nonsense.
