    I don’t think multiple guns per person are necessary tbh. Increases risk of them falling into the wrong hands and other accidents.

      Each person should assess their needs and prepare appropriately. Maybe a person wants one general purpose gun. Someone else might want a very long range rifle with a small sidearm as backup.

      Frankly getting bogged down in the minutiae immediately (and talking gun control of all things) is being unable to see the forest for the trees and really emblematic of why “the left” can’t get anything done. You don’t want two guns that’s great don’t get two it’s not a difficult concept. In case you missed the point your protection is on you so prepare accordingly.

        Yeah that sidearm totally necessary for in case the enemy is exactly 25 inches away which is a shorter distance than your 26 inch rifle. /sarcasm

          It’s like you’ve never actually fired a gun. Do you think shooting something 100 yards away is the same as shooting something 4 foot away?

          I can see you don’t like guns and that’s fine, that means my comment was clearly not meant for you but for people who are willing to defend themselves when the worst case scenario becomes reality. Maybe you’d feel differently if you had a family to protect, but maybe you’d just equivocate and “ackshually” while they carted your trans kid off. I don’t know and don’t really care tbh, the post was for those paying attention. Have a nice day.

            Bro thinks a 10-18 lbs rifle is too difficult to point around, want us to buy a magnum. Good riddance, NRA shill.

              I feel like you can’t read, that would explain why that’s what you took from my comment, good riddance, dork.
