Going with the other stuff I was saying, I definitely think you should be able to purchase 50 cals and machine guns and everything else, but like, you shouldn’t be allowed to keep them at your house.
They should have to go to a public storage facility where they are kept under lock and key, and only let out to the registered owner or to the people that the registered owner permits, like a gun bank that also serves as a volunteer militia registration and training center.
I’m totally okay with people having their cake and eating it too, as long as that is done with the overall safety and happiness of society in mind.
Blowing shit up is a hell of a lot of fun, and if you have the money to do it, you should be allowed to do it. It’s a great stress reliever, it’s an excellent opportunity to hang out with your boys or your girls or your pals of indeterminate gender.
You are describing the national guard. It’s a public service you join up, get training, and have service obligations.
If you want to blow shit up become an explosives engineer or work in demolition. Just because you have a personal fetish for high calibre guns is a pretty bad reason to claim everyone should do it too.
Casting aspersions on the person you’re debating with is generally not a good way to communicate your point.
I don’t have any fetishes for high-caliber weaponry. I’ve never fired anything stronger than a shotgun, and that was just when I was learning how to use a shotgun.
I am well aware that the National Guard exists, and I know that there are reserves and army reserves that the average person can join, but I also know that it is a multi-year, high-level commitment that takes you away from your career, your friends, and your family, and it’s not really appropriate for everyone.
Saying these things to me doesn’t actually address any of the topics that I introduced in my earlier statement.
It’s perfectly fine to disagree with me or to say that you believe all guns should be melted down for scrap.
I’ll do my best to debate reasonably as long as we aren’t just insulting each other.
