Why don't americans ban guns already? Do they want more shootings? Getting shot doesn't cure fatness!
>>
I can´t get americans logic on guns
I actually own a legal gun myself wich is hard here because gun laws, and well I never even touch it
But they seem to think that they need a fucking AA gun all time because somebody is going to get them
>>
Gun manufacturers and the government fabricated the Arms Race culture to keep the money flowing.

That's all there is to it.

Because banning guns don't make them disappear.

I mean, it's 2016 right? The EU is getting rid of free speech and they're so progressive
>>
>>61060515
We can amend the constitution but it takes a lot of political will and several states to ratify changes.
>>
Do people actually think that banning guns helps? Even here guns are illegal. Do you ever hear about how progressive Nigeria's gun laws are? no.
>>
>>61060573
Not anyone who's smart. The EU has the Swiss but no one is asking them to ban guns
>>
>>61060573
Here we have a similar situation, theyre not illegal but is stupid in how hard they are to get, I think we fail at it because 3rd world corruption but if america calls itself """1st world"""" they sure can pull out something better
>>
All banning guns does is stop law abiding citizens from obtaining them. Won't deter any criminals or terrorists who actually want to hurt us. Plus without guns, people just go and use stuff like knives, swords, forks, spoons, their bare hands, rocks, etc. like you see in Europe. What are you gonna do? Ban everything?
>>
>>61060228

tl;dr it always boils down to the following 2 arguments;

1. Having guns allows them to defend themselves and be responsible for their own safety
2. Overriding the constitution to ban guns opens the doorway to further constitutional breaches from the government

They're never going to ban guns as long as Muslims continue to shoot up cities in Europe though while our governments ignore it.

>>61060620
I meant Europe, not EU. Oops

>>61060286
Can best be summed up as "MUH SLIPPERY SLOPE"

You should be able to have guns because this is America, but there should be safeguards. Scaling up with the Like I'm sorry but you should have to go through AT LEAST as much red tape for an AR-15 as you do for your drivers license. Like maybe a fucking doctors note? Having the money shouldn't be the only determining factor

>in b4 the answer is always more fund, fuck off

>>61060286
I need an AA gun because the government might turn usurpatious and tyrannical

You can get fucked

An unarmed populace is easier to oppress than an armed one. That's the reason that we have the 2nd amendment

>>"if the govt bans guns I'll illegally keep a gun to gun to fight them off"

It'll also help me defend myself.

Your military isn´t requierd to swear loyalty to the state and its institutions?
Its the only reason we havent had a coup
>>
>>61060794
Because I am an American.
>>
Lmao, you can "ban" guns but cops, criminals, and the government will still have them...so essentially by "banning guns" you're only making it harder for law-abiding citizens to defend themselves.
>>
>>61060993
We americans have this neat thing called Lying.
We do it all the time, maybe your people should try it out. It's how we fucked the Natives over.
>>
>>61061033
Ban cops, criminals and the government from having them too.
>>
>>61060993
They're required to swear to uphold the Constitution.

Theoretically that means that the military is legally bound to overthrow a usurpatious government, but with the retards that are only in there for scholarships it's doubtful that they will
>>
The vast majority of Americans are in favor of gun control. They literally are the silent majority. Gun enthusiast are simply a vocal minority who actively gets the NRA to work on behalf of them.

It's a matter of time until the opposition gets it crap together because public opinion isn't siding in favor of gun death publicity.

Most people have a misconception about why guns are allowed in America. The primary reason is not that we need to defend ourselves on a day-to-day basis. The reason for the second amendment was so the citizens of the United States would have the weaponry to overthrow the government if necessary.

If you think that your government deserves it's power simply because it is a government, and not to fairly rule and protect it's people, then ban guns.
>>
>>61061646

>>61061746
That makes no sense to me. Why would you need to overthrow the government? You're living a presumably happy life in a first world country and you want to overthrow the govt because they take your guns? Won't that just further escalate the situation?
>>
>>61062005
It's supposed to be a safeguard against oppressive regime. If the people fear government, there is tyranny; if the government fears the people there is liberty.

So you're saying that it's good if the government fears the people?
>>
>>61062372
Duh, of course it's a good thing.
>>
>>61062400
I believe that out viewpoints are differentiate because of the different situations that we are both in. The idea of a society that the government should fear the people is exactly what would lead leads to states such as Somalia and Liberia (at least here in Africa). But the case in the US is clearly different
>>
>>61062005
>>61062372
The intended reason for government(in the West) is to protect its people and make the lives of its people easier. To do this governments are granted a lot of power. If they abuse this power, they need to be replaced.

Even if we are currently living a happy life, that does not guarantee that we will in the future. If our government becomes a tyrant we need our weapons to overthrow them. If we ban guns now, we might be forsaking the future of our children.

>>61062494
"Fear its people" probably wasn't the best term to describe it. The people of the United States gives the government the power to rule, but the government knows that if they mess up the people are capable of removing them. People here aren't actively trying to fight the government, for the most part we're glad to have it.
