    I didnt think feeling safe was why liberals where buying guns. I thought it was to make oppressors and aggressors feel less safe.

      Guns are literally an oppressive force. The second amendment people are ready to kill those who try to stop ICE or change the government in a way they don’t like. Their threat is literally murder, but sure more guns will solve this problem.

          Semantics. There are more guns in the US than people in the US. Guns are an oppressive force themselves in these extreme circumstances.

          No different than having land mines all over at this point. People die needlessly due to proliferation thus creating an oppressive force without 2nd amendment gun nutters.
