I'm all for banning guns. Come from a country and live in another country where normal people can't buy a firearm. Still this sounds like a small step in the right direction

Do you need to defend yourself from the local sheriff?!

Did you sell insurance while drunk?!

Don't know about the US, but in most places the military wouldn't send you tonserve or even less fight to, say, Shithole, Alabama if you are from there. Of course you wouldn't shoot your uncle or brother. They figured this out centuries ago, before firearms.

So you guys don't have universal healthcare but it makes sense for the taxpayers to subsidise insurance and background checks so everyone can carry a gun and be happy, and sobthe the poor are not left out from this inalienable right that is carrying a gun in public like in the western movies?

It's already very difficult to nearly impossible to obtain a purchase and carry permit in the state since Maryland is "May issue" state and NOT a "Shall issue" state.

You almost make it sound like this is a bad thing?

You're advocating that people, including poor people, pay $50 a month that they didn't need to just to have the right to protect themselves from victimization.

Help us make a sense out your long comments. How are guns 'protecting you from victimization' exactly, any anectodes you want to share?

Send us your address, all us lemmy users can chip in and and gift you a big big ass weapon for your 14th birthday next year

You mean you have never shot your boss or at least your landlord?

Also, are you really comparing yourself to MLK? You definitely should stay away from guns and sharps.

Whiteknighting without adding anything? Should transwomen be allowed to say anything, and no one can disagree?

Is your gun keeping a third of your country at bay?

Nobody should be carrying.

Not the only one, somalia too.

And instead of complaining for the lack of healthcare, they cry because they are going to tax your Colt and you are not allowed to take it to the supermarket anymore.

As much as I'm shaking my head at the Americans crying for the poor poor people unable to afford a gun anymore because unjust extra costs.. wtf do you have 2M insurance on a pet? Worried she'll bite the queen and give her rabies with those 4 teeth?

Sounds like a step in the right direction. Force people to get insurance to keep a deadly weapon, and at the same time prevent insurance companies from offering that service. A convoluted way to ban private citizens owning guns in a civilised country sounds good regardless?

Is it firearm, or just arm?

You can bear a pitchfork. That's an arm

If you want to bear a gun you need insurance. Not happy? Just bear a pitchfork.

Want to bear a nuclear warhead? Not available to the general population in the us yet. Is this infringing your rights? The constitution says you can bear arms, not that you should be allowed to bear whatever arms you want.

And rightly so
