You want a weapon of war, fucking serve. But I don't want my neighborhood turned into a fucking battlefield. We are not landing on the beaches of Normandy.
You are correct, it is not about keeping toys. However, IT IS ABOUT MONEY! The makers of firearms are like any CEO, their job is to keep their market and expand their market and keep and gain shareholders. This isn't about rights for the CEOs of these companies, it is about MARKETING!
The makers are pulling the same fear mongering bullshit car companies did when Nadar told them their products suck. But funny that, regulations have made cars safer. But big oil is also selling fear too, trying to avoid the fact that burning fossil fuels is causing global warming.
MARKETING, not rights, but selling fear to people like you so they can keep their profit margins up.
"Consider your man card issued" isn't about rights, it is marketing a fantasy implying the mere ownership of a firearm will magically turn you into Rambo.
^^^^^ That is marketing a serious tool as if it were merely a toy. Firearms are not toys and should not be marketed as if they were.
Firearms have no magic powers, and more often than not, the user is far more likely to hurt themselves or someone they are familiar with than they would successfully use it against a complete stranger.
It has everything to do with the 2nd amendment right. Of course companies are trying to make money and there is some fear mongering but in the end they won't get our guns anyway. It is a concern of mine but I don't see it happening. There would be a war in this country if they came for the guns. Many people are too smart for that.
Firearms ARE NOT LIVING HUMANS DUMBASS!
Humans have rights, objects do not have rights. I am sorry someone scared the shit out of you and painted safety advocates as evil. We are not evil for pointing out the vile marking of the makers using fear to pit you against me. GROW THE FUCK UP. Nobody wants a war asshole.
You remember this bullshit the next time a school, or bar, or business office gets shot up.
Prevention is not oppression.
Australia is not a dictatorship. NZ is not a dictatorship. Japan is not a dictatorship. Canada is not a dictatorship. England is not a dictatorship. They are all our allies and also free and open pluralistic societies. If they can do it, we can too.
