^ Hahahaha. That's naive.
You think the US government couldn't murder us right now if they wanted to? Their weaponry is unimaginably more powerful than any of your little guns and any number of your militias.
I sit here laughing at how much power you think you have, and how much power they make you believe you have. All this "guns = freedom" is marketing bullshit. They want to sell you guns. It's a business. They're selling toys for adults.
We're already completely disarmed. Your guns mean nothing compared to what they're capable of. You might as well be carrying slingshots. You stand zero chance against this military equipped with tanks and jets and drones and nukes.
Your militia would be standing in a field with all your guns ready to go and a fucking military drone from 5,000 ft in the sky would blow all of you to bits in one second.
The only reason they keep us alive is because we're the consumers that buy goods that make them rich.
- There is a reason they don't let you own tanks, and jets, and drones.iCanHazQBN
- ...because those things actually matter. Your guns don't.iCanHazQBN
- So enough with the tyrannical government / hitler / stalin bullshit excuse. We are already disarmed, right this very second.iCanHazQBN
- Shouldn't this be reason enough to make people paranoid to let their guns be taken?IRNlun6
- Replace the word guns with slingshot in your sentence. It doesn't matter at this point.iCanHazQBN
- We've over-funded our own military. If they ever turn against their own citizens, the citizens are fucked.iCanHazQBN
- If these anti-tyranny gun people really cared, they'd be protesting for access to tanks, jets, nukes, & drones, to level the playing field more.iCanHazQBN
- They can't even get automatic weapons. They're playing with toys!.. and they think they stand a fighting chance. So pathetic.iCanHazQBN
- I don't disagree with your larger point of overwhelming force but if that where to happen it really wouldn't be the US any more.IRNlun6
- Well, the after-effects of a citizens vs military war in this country would be like a doomsday scenario.iCanHazQBN
- The US has evolved from it's beginnings. What's the definition of the US? It could be a shit country 200 years from now. The name doesn't matter.iCanHazQBN
- If there's anything that's going to start internal conflict it'd be water shortages, leading to food shortages.iCanHazQBN
- I would think those serving in the military are more patriotic than your average American so in such a situation you'd possibly see a more level playing field.IRNlun6
- Well, any of those in the military that defect to the citizen's side would not have access to the jets, drones, etc. It's not a level playing field.iCanHazQBN
- What is scary is the young men who have been broken down by the military's structure so much that they can't refuse orders from higher-ups.iCanHazQBN
- They've all been psychologically conditioned to take and execute orders.iCanHazQBN
- They've also pledged an oath to defend the constitution. I would think the mercenaries would be a great threat in this scenario.IRNlun6
- I think gun ownership to defend against tyrannical government is largely symbolic in a practical sense.IRNlun6
- It's symbolic and nothing more. And 51,740 people in this country died last year because of it.iCanHazQBN
- oh my god kid, you just went full on retard mode. you have completely missed the point and gone off on some misguided tirade over nothing at all. what a dummy********
- You keep giving the same reasons for owning a gun... and they're all incredibly weak reasons.iCanHazQBN
- and the assertion that gun deaths are somehow caused by the guns themselves is incredibly weak logic. they are caused mostly by irresponsible people, and then v********
- very depressed people, and finally the murderers, all of whom are human beings who are responsible for their actions********
- but you are just a rabid troll so why do i bother talking to you. you have already accused me of somehow having blood on my hands, what a daft twit********
