While watching the above video about new laws to violate property rights, it occurred to me that the need for firearms can be circumvented to some degree.
Sure, take the assault rifles to make it safer to SWAT people, ....so the people instead drop incendiaries and explosives from drones into pigs. (Pig Roast -lol)
Snipers assemble of rooftops ....where they are especially vulnerable to flying chainsaws.
Florida House voted YES to allow teachers to be armed. Governor will sign.
I asked my children how they felt about that. One said "Yay!" and my youngest said "I will feel safe".
I already purchased bullet proof pads for their book bags, too.
I say just station an armed soldier at the entrance to every school, but people are too worried about scaring the children.
The thing is, kids don't view the military as the bad guy by default. They see them as protection.
Of course, you end up with (some) cops that don't do a damn thing, but I think a soldier is dedicated to doing his duty.
@SomethingCursed Actually, Mexico is the most obese nation in the world.
If you care to carry out basic research into “terror attacks” and “mass shootings” phenomenon, you will come to the realisation that you should have no concerns about safety in regards to these two avenues, either in the past or at this juncture in time.
Regarding Military versus Police, both take orders from whomever controls their leaders but the former will do this wholly without question.
It annoys me to no end that people think that they can arbitrarily infringe on the second amendment because "reasons".
1) The 2A is not for hunting. I'm so sick and tired of hearing people say, "You don't need an AR15 to hunt!".
2) The 2A is for killing. It's that's simple. For example a government who would want to oppress you. It's our safeguard to keep the government in check as they know their citizens are armed.
3) "Assault rifles are dangerous and no civilian needs them!" Ugh, so tired of this one. The "assault rifles" you see for sale aren't anything more than regular hunting / sport rifles in cosplay. They look mean, but they aren't automatic or any more "assault" than a wooden stock sport rifle.
4) "MAD" - Mutually Assured Destruction. This saved our rears during the cold war, and it's what keeps bad guys with guns from attacking just anyone. If you want to rob someone, you'll want to find someone who doesn't look like they can defend themselves. Because if they could, chances are you'd die.
Now take away the citizens possibility to protect themselves by taking their legal guns, what have you accomplished? There are still plenty of illegal firearms out there with more crossing the border daily. All you've accomplished is making it easier for bad people to do bad things to good people.
