[Get Real!]

I’ve always found it completely unacceptable that US citizens can just walk in and out of a shop with a brand new gun in hand and in some states high power rifles and all sorts of military paraphernalia (albeit mostly non-military grade junk but still deadly…)

That’s not how a civilized nation should be; (oh and Paphitis don’t even bother responding to this with your usual “freedom” garbage because I really don’t want to hear it) it’s outrageous that undisciplined citizens should have such easy access to such deadly weapons.

At the very least they should oblige such citizens to attend a State-run gun-owning discipline course or something.

Here in Cyprus we are all military people either by choice or by law, so most of our male compatriots understand the discipline that is required if you are to have rifles and ammunition at home.

I could never live in the US knowing that millions of retarded psychopaths with absolutely zero training could have guns and ammunition at home.

I had a lot of chats with many of these pot-bellied, trigger happy far-right American idiots on LiveLeak, and they were proud to boast that they were gearing up for a full scale “civil war” as they called it, and I’d be like…

“Are you lot for real? Do you honestly think that the $50 junk rifles you bought at the funfair and the 200 odd rounds you’ve got at home are going to be enough for this so-called civil war?”

And they would then remind that they were in their millions and thus had many guns and ammo!

So I’d then remind them that after 2-3 bursts their 200 odd rounds would be gone, their crappy rifles would either jam or burst at the seams from heat and explode in their faces, and that their better armed and better trained National Guard would wipe the floor with them picking them off from a mile away if needed, within a few days!

Their concept of how things would work and unfold in a coup are absolutely childish!

Many Americans who buy guns for personal projection, statically die from their own weapons than from any intruder to be. Mostly are suicides, killed accidentally or intruder taking the gun and killing it’s owner. Not to mention many kids getting killed with guns when not stored safely.

I inherited a Smith & Wesson .357 revolver from a friend who was a gay police officer died from Aids in early 90’s and on occasions, I would go to the firing range, get 50 rounds of ammo and fire away. I still have it in the US and oil it each time I am there, which is still registered in my deceased friend’s name.

I will have a lot of explaining to do if I am ever caught with that gun in my car going to and from the shooting range.

Driving through the western states in 2014 I was surprised by the number of gun ranges offering their wares. One big poster “COME IN AND BLOW SHIT UP!”.

Coincidentally, about the same time:

Also, Walmart shopping in Nevada/Arizona took a bit of getting used to, when it seemed you could throw an AR15 in your trolley on a whim (I think they’ve stopped that since). Although I believe a police check was needed for the handguns.

2nd amendment Bill of Rights. Plus, Americans are more militarised and better trained than Cyprus National Guardsmen. They are professional soldiers not conscripts for starters. Minimum term of service is 6 + years. That’s before you’re eligible for discharge.

I’m sorry but you can’t compare a conscript force to a professional armed service which won’t allow family on base even to bring you koupepkia like there some mommy boy snowflake vouteropeda.

When the bus takes you through the boom gates onto the parade ground like you are up for selection, you don’t exactly know or comprehend what is waiting for you. It wasn’t mentioned in the brochures and propaganda. You literally shit your pants. No phones, no tv, no radio, no news, no contact with the outside world or family. And no leave either. Up at sunrise for flag duties and and colours and it was the same day in day out and even after sleep deprivation where they will wake you up every hour or 2 to fall in line just for a head count.

But you do have a welfare officer if needed and counsellors but it will probably go in your file if you keep crying out for help. But mummy abd daddy can call to ensure their kid is ok and they will be fed the propaganda in the brochure making it sound like their kid is in a club Ned resort in the Bahamas whilst the truth is he is probably on rations, in a field or a 40 km March with full pack and gear and no meals for 2 days.

We haven’t had the military draft in the US since 1973 and it is no longer compulsory to serve, which means overwhelming number of civilians has never served in the military and be professionally trained.

I know that. They are not a conscript military but they still have over 2 million active personnel,

All who signed their lives away for a career in a pro armed service.

There is a clear distinction between that and a conscript for like the CNG or any other conscript army of any other country for that matter.

GR was talking about their fitness to walk in to buy arms over the counter. The fact is, 99.9% of people are fit. The 0.1% are the other criminal element. So you need to find away to control the 0.1% without infringing the 99.9% 2nd amendment right.

More than anything, America now has the perfect pretext to disarm and dismantle all militia groups, as well as imposing many gun restrictions that wouldn’t have previously been acceptable.

I hope Biden is smart enough to swiftly take advantage of this situation while he still can.

As for uniting the nation, I think it’ll fall into place by itself once the many offenders have been incarcerated and any remaining agitators crawl back under their rocks.

As for who is lying the most… I think Trump takes the cake, the cherry and all other decorations!

Biden is already in trouble as with one pen stroke or executive order he has put 70,000 Americans out of work,

If he takes their guns away as well, he won’t last 2 months.

It’s as always, the little blue collar worker that pays and at this rate the Democrats will be gone in 4 years time if they disarm the population. All the GOP has to do is run on the platform to reinstate the Bill of Rights, enshrined in the constitution of the USA. Any amendment requires a referendum in all states and a majority in 2 thirds of them to pass.

They are not preparing to fight their own military.

They have an inherit distrust of big governments overstepping their Mark and that fear dates back to their bloody civil way in the 19th century.

Oh and there are hardly militias. A few clowns on the dark web shooting tin cans on a tree trunk is hardly a militia. They just live their guns.

Some people like you actually want some of the southerners to go on a rampage but for over 100 years now successive US Governments have managed to control them. To breach their 2nd amendment is something that can only provoke them.

To some Americans, that is breach of their their protected freedoms and Government over reach,
