STEEZUS_CHRI5TOkay, I think I follow - you're saying that owning a gun can influence someone to go through with an attack? Whereas if they didn't have a firearm they likely wouldn't have acted on that impulse. If so, I think that's a pretty good point. It could make the average joe into a killer.
However, most of these attacks aren't being done by your clean record average Joe. It's the people who live lives of crime and that's where I make that separation in saying killers are killers.
Yea idk, probably lots of militias and most cities/town would be safe havens against a boots on the ground type invasion. I doubt that will ever happen nowadays.
I get it. I just think we go hard into the criminal/killer whatever label. A lot of stuff is opportunity. I def agree that for some stuff if you've done it you're more likely to be down to do it again. Our "correctional" system isn't very good at reforming people. Fixing some issues with that could definitely have an impact on crime.
Idk, a lot of militias seems like kooks honestly. Kind of like biker gangs. It's a cool club, you're hard af, but what do you really do. I doubt it will ever happen either. Extremely unlikely. i just think we look at war as something that happens to people who don't matter in foreign places. It's other cultures, and we don't see them as people. A family gets blown up, meh it's those people. A city is bombed to nothing after a war, meh, it's some other place.
We're really good about seeing America as completely different. I don't think it would be good honestly, I just wish people had some perspective on things. We're so ready to blow up shit in the name of freedom, I wish we could experience what that feels like. Or at least understand without if that's possible.
It's not going to happen so it doesn't matter. War is patriotic and 100% freedom, regardless of the location the people, the war, anything; It's always justified and righteous because we're America. That's the vibe, and that's 100% bullshit. But saying that means you're a communist, un patriotic, you don't support the troops whatever that means, etc.
Shits weird.
